Summer Activity Jar

...When Bridger wants to play, and I wish we had a new idea...

      I had checked out several of those books "Things to do with Toddlers and Two's" looking for some great ideas of things to keep Bridger happy, busy, and learning.  And I found some good ideas.  But in the moment when I need a good idea, I could hardly remember any.  So I decided to make up a fun jar.  I made up a list, cut each idea out, and Bridger helped me fold each slip in half and put them in the jar.  I think picking the thing to do is half the fun.  

      Some more creative things we've tried:

Sorting color paper

Finger Painting Shaving Cream Colors, for the tub

Dumping cereal on floor, okay not really, haha

      I made up a similar list for my Toddler Class that I handed out before our summer break.  Here is the link to My Activity Jar list: click here.  (Some of the ideas need certain supplies on hand, but not all.)  I know we're at the end of the summer, but I'm always looking for good ideas, so I thought I'd share anyway! :)
