Five-minute play cards
Pick the card that matches what you have. Try one round together and let your child change the game.
Clean socks · Find a pair
Lay out two pairs of clean socks. Pick one and ask, “Can you find its partner?” Try matching by feel, pattern or size.
Light cardboard box · Make a shop
Set an open, empty box on the floor or a table. Pretend it’s a shop counter. Take turns inventing what the shop sells.
Just yourselves · Copy my rhythm
Tap a slow pattern on your knees, clap, or use a gesture. Take turns copying and making up a new pattern. Point or nod if you want a quiet version.
Play together. Choose clean, intact materials suited to your child. Put small or sharp items, loose batteries and magnets away.
