Baby Play: Tissue Box

Pin It

Little Dude is now eight months old and looking to get in on the play action with his brothers, so I've been hunting down ideas of fun things to do with him.  The first up is 'tissue box pull' I've seen this recently both at The Imagination Tree and Chasing Cheerios.

The idea is to take a tissue or wet wipe box and place in it pieces of material for them to pull out.  This is what ours looked like it's literally an empty cardboard tissue box with strips of green felt material, you could make it more interesting with different colours and textures, but green was all I had.


This is what Little Dude got up to with it....


He really seemed to enjoy trying to pull the materials out, but the pieces at the bottom were a bit trickier for him so I think he'll enjoy doing this again.

Very quick and easy, but something a bit different for him to do!

Note - Babies need to be fully supervised with this activity as they may put materials in their mouths or round their necks.

  9. I don't create many comments, however i did some searching and wound up here "Baby Play: Tissue Box". And I do have some questions for you if it's allright.
    Is it simply me or does it seem like a few of these responses come across like left by
    brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing at other online social sites,
    I'd like to follow anything new you have to post. Could you list of all of your communal pages like your linkedin profile, Facebook page or twitter feed?

  10. I've been surfing online greater than three hours lately, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It's lovely value enough for me.

    Personally, if all website owners and bloggers
    made just right content material as you probably did, the
    web will probably be much more helpful than ever before.
