Yes, eating is the best way to practice how to use utensils, but if you want a little extra practice, this is a fun way to do it!
✅ I cut pipe cleaners in half and made rings.
✅ If you don’t have pipe cleaners you can use ribbon, shower hooks, or anything you have at home
✅ You don’t need to add water, but I usually do for two reasons: Abby loves it and it makes it easier for her to grab the rings with the fork.
✅Bring the activity outside if you can!
✅ Perfect activity for toddlers 15 months+
✅Abby is 20 months for your reference
Other ideas:
Children not only learn life skills with this activity they also practice:
✅Fine motor skills
✅Concentration
✅ You can add more bowls and color sort the rings
✅ You can ask them to put certain amount on each bowls to practice numbers
✅You can make rings big or small and practice opposites
