What you need
- Toys or objects that will roll, like wheeled toys such as cars, or trains, balls or empty cylindrical bottles
- A large empty box
This game might get very exciting, so be ready for giggles!
What to do
- Start rolling your items, one at a time.
- Let your toddler know they will be trying to stop the rolling objects from getting into the box.
- Lie the box on its side.
- Give them a chance to grab the toys, so start by rolling them gently.
- Play this lots of times as the more they play, the better they will become at synchronising body movements with their vision in order to grab the moving toys.
- Tell your toddler they can stand wherever they like when you start to roll a toy: next to you, in front of you or in front of the box.
