🧺 Laundry baskets aren’t just for clothes! 🧺
This week, we’re kicking off our series on using everyday things at home to support your child’s development. 🌟 Laundry baskets can be a great way to build strength, coordination, and body awareness while having fun at home.
Here are a few playful ideas to try:
🚗 Push or pull the basket across the floor with towels or toys inside. This helps build upper body and core strength while working on coordination and motor planning. Turn it into a “delivery game” where your child drops off clean clothes or teddies in different rooms.
🎯 Use the basket as a target and throw in soft toys or rolled-up socks. This supports hand-eye coordination and visual-motor skills while keeping things playful.
Everyday routines like laundry can easily become opportunities for play, movement, and learning. Stay tuned for our next everyday item you can use at home to support your child’s development. ✨
