Indoor Toddler Activities

With winter in full swing (though not a very snowy one) I have started researching more fun indoor activities for Izzy. I enjoy reading "Tot School" and Montessori school blogs for inspiration and printables. Here are a few super cool ideas I want to try next:

Recipe for Homemade Finger Paint
1 cup flour
2 tablespoons salt
1 1/2 cups cold water
1 1/2 cups hot water
Coloring:  food coloring, tempera paint, or powdered tempera will work
  • Letter matching with foam bath letters. Izzy is starting to learn her letters, so I have been looking for simple activities to help encourage her. 
Letter Match tray idea from The Princess and The Tot
  • Sensory play tray with baking soda and vinegar. I remember making foaming volcanoes in elementary school, but I never would have thought of this! Izzy loves bubbles in the tub, and digging in the dirt and sandboxes, so I think this may be a fun activity for her.
