A Simple Toy

Toys these days. What don't they do really. 
Aside from cleaning my house, they seem to do it all:
Sing, dance, vibrate, light up, spin...
yet somehow we I grow tired of them.
So we decided to take it back to the good ole days.
I originally got the idea from Productive Parenting and modified it a little.
Rather than using cornmeal as originally stated, we used oatmeal.
It's fairly simple, cost little to nothing and is wonderful for helping with fine motor skills.
Just fill a pan with oatmeal,
give baby some containers,
and watch their faces light up as the new sensation tickles their fingers and toes.
 It's an activity for the entire family.
And it will remind you that sometimes less is more when it comes to toys.
