Sometimes we spend fortunes on toys full of lights and sounds, and then our children are more entertained with an empty bottle or hiding inside a box.
With a little inventiveness and simple elements that we find in all things we can make them homemade toys like these that you will surely love.
An empty bottle filled with marbles, chickpeas or pebbles can be an entertaining rattle for the little ones. Be sure to seal the lid tightly to avoid accidents.
The kitchen objects: pans, ladles, wooden spoons or skimmers attract them a lot and they will have fun putting together an orchestra of sounds.
Empty yogurt containers are very clean, and if you take care to decorate them, they can be excellent pieces of a construction set.
A shoe box with a hole in the lid can be used to store treasures.
A pile of old magazines that we don't use anymore are ideal for viewing photos and for developing their manual skills by destroying them.
With a roll of kitchen paper for the trunk and four rolls of toilet paper for arms and legs decorated with fibers we can make a cardboard doll.
Of course, do not offer items that may be dangerous or toxic, or that the baby can swallow.
