Soft Toy Moving Day

  • 3–5 years
  • A short play session

Napkin Bakery

Your child’s meal is finished, but yours isn’t. Turn a few clean paper napkins into a tiny pretend bakery: your child makes the treats and arranges them on their own little patch of table while you finish eating beside them.

Sock Match Mission

Your child is happily playing while you sit nearby, but the moment you get up, they follow. A small, clear job can give them something concrete to work on: find each sock’s partner and put the pairs together. Start the mission together, then let them continue while you do something nearby.
