{this post contains affiliate links}Today, as we seem to do quite frequently lately, we reached for our copy of 101 Kids Activities That are the Bestest, Funnest Ever! during the little pocket of time we have between quiet play and my tutoring commitments. Gracen flipped through the pages, picked a project, and we made an awesome little catapult out of some large craft sticks and a disposable spoon.
The three of us were sitting down together today and I yanked out these two supplies for a little activity I’ve had in mind for a long while now.
I originally saw these velcro building sticks at Tot Treasures and loved the simplicity of them.
With our sticky velcro dots attached to each side and firmly pressed down, we were ready to try them out.
We begun attaching them to one another and quickly realized that they would be 10 times more fun with velcro dots on both sides of the sticks (more dots on our list for next shopping trip!), but Grae didn’t seem to mind.
Her favourite? Making ‘snakes’ and ‘zigzags’.
