Home-made slide – practising positioning toys with your toddler

What you need 

  • A large cardboard tube 
  • Tape 
  • Toys or objects that will fit through the tube 

What to do 

  • Tape the tube to a cupboard or wall, either at a slight angle or straight down, depending on how quickly you want the toys to drop through! 
  • Put a few toys that will slide through the tube into a container and place this beneath the tube, ready to catch the toys at the other end. 
  • Invite your toddler to post the toys into the tube. Stand back and watch! 
  • Try mixing up the toys to keep it interesting.
