We have a "busy bin" filled with an assortment of toys, art supplies, and random objects that my toddler doesn't get to play with often. It's a mix of new and old, so it always feels exciting for her to explore. Each day I bring out a different Busy Bin activity, which gives me time to prep meals or do some work while she's entertained. Some of the things I've included are pipe cleaners, googly eyes, pom poms, colored noodles, small toys, playdough, and even some kitchen utensils like measuring cups and strainers! It's an easy way to keep her occupied and give me some hands-free time, plus she's always eager to see what new surprises the bin will bring each day.
