This week, we played this busy box #1 again. This time with the boy and he enjoyed it so much that I could do my dishes and cook dinner. Mission accomplished!
First he did scooping with spoons.
Then he sorted the foam beads by color. The color sorting tray is new and I added it just for him because it's very age-appropriate for 1.5yo now. He did a very good job at this. No help at all and he totally love it! Love this busy box.
To make the tray, u can recycle an plastic egg carton or any kind of plastic packaging and paint the compartments. This tray we have here came from a fish ball package. The twelve compartments were just sufficient for color recognition.
To see what's in it and what the girl did with the items, see this busy box #1 .
