Today, I pulled another activity out of my “Baby Play” book. This one had limited success…or should I say, different success.

Instead of wanting to bang on it (teaching cause and effect), he just wanted to chew on it...just like everything else he sees!

"What. Am I doing this wrong?". Also, notice the tiny tear in his eye. A few minutes before, he had just tried to walk on his own in the split second that I turned my back, causing a giant face plant into the carpet (he hasn't learned to bend his knees yet!)
Once he had learned to bend the tin into small pieces, there were, as you can imagine, lots of sharp metal corners jutting out, so I took it away eventually immediately…
The scarf game, however, was still a giant winner.

That's a lot of intensity, all rolled up into one kid. I don't know where he got it from. Notice the hand over hand coordination!
