that's so corny..

We visited my parents the other night to pick up some pumpkins my dad grew for us. While there, I grabbed a few ears of corn. I've seen huge bins of corn at orchards for kids to play in, and I thought J might like playing with it.

I pulled most of the corn off the cob and left some of it on so J could try to pull a few off while working on his fine motor skills. I put the corn in a pan and gave him a few cups and spoons to play with. He really enjoyed it only held his interest for 15 minutes or so. I then busted out the big guns: his toy loaders. He loved scooping the corn in them and moving it around the pan. A great way to keep his interest is to start out simply and then add stuff if he is getting bored.






*I just thought this was so funny... I walked in and E had his burp cloth hanging out of his mouth just sitting there sucking on it. Love him!
