How to Create a Boo Basket for Halloween Do you do Boo Baskets for your littles?

Anytime in October is a great time to give a Boo Basket. I plan to surprise my little ones with their Boo Baskets on October 1. I love the excitement that these baskets bring. It's a perfect way to spread Halloween cheer. Celebrating the holidays with my little ones is one of my favorite things. I will be sharing more of the Boo Baskets on my Instagram ( @marrisalutz ) you can follow along on the fun in my stories. I'll be sure to save a Boo Basket highlight. Boo Baskets are what you make them. They do NOT need to be over the top, unless that is what you want. We live
Scooping Activity for Toddlers
We have completed a similar activity before, Sensory Muffin/Cupcake Tin Activity. I don't know about your toddler, but recently my little one has really enjoyed scooping and dumping items. To encourage this skill I collected a few items from around the house and completed an activity.
Items You Will Need:
- Bucket
- Muffin tin
- Golf balls (we live on a golf course so we have many of these)
- A big spoon for scooping.
This activity is great, because the supplies are minimal and items that you probably have laying around the house, and it provides a window of engagement. It may seem like an easy enough activity, but your little one will be getting a lot out of it! Look at the list below to see what skills your child will be working on.
Skills:
- Fine motor skills
- Coordination
- Dexterity
- Gross motor skills
- Determination/Grit
- Attention Span
Happy Playing,
Marrisa
