Unlock the fun: 101 ideas for toys you already have, that you will actually use!

As a teacher and a mother of two under two, I understand the struggle of juggling low-preparation, high-engagement, and learning-focused activities. Like many of you, I was looking for ways to keep my little ones engaged without relying on endless screen time – and maybe even find a moment to drink my coffee! I also did not want to spend more time setting up the activity than they play with it.

Each card has seven activities for each toy!

What you need?
Books, pens, paper, blocks, toy animals, dolls (including little people, lego men or action dolls). 
Optional: Dot stickers, toilet rolls, a balloon. 
Timers can be used very effectively to encourage some healthy competition, even against themselves.

Enjoy!
