This activity took me just five minutes to set up. All you need is a washing basket and a few coloured or even patterned scarves. If you don’t have scarves then I’m sure a few pairs of tights, long socks or your partners work ties would do fine!
I threaded the scarves through the holes in the basket and placed L on her tummy. She pulled at the lower scarves and waved them about. I then sat her up so that she could reach the upper scarves.

This activity is great for visual skills and hand-eye coordination. I will probably do this activity with L over and over.
