i made the holes in a shoe box and did the color dingies with dough but they crack easily, so my man cut the broom stick and now the color dingies will last for ever :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
the two years old must name the color when they put the dingies in the holes, but the younger ones love just sticking them in the holes.

That's a really good idea. I have a three year old who really struggles with colours so am going to go and dig out my old shoe boxes to make one of these.
What are gingies though? Lol... presume the things you put in the holes??

IN Fact I only look at ideas which are on photos, which unfortunately reduces the choice; i haven't got much time to read even if it were in french : with the kids to look after, the activities to do, and the french forum.
so i hope that more people are going to put pictures :blush: :blush: :blush: :blush: and what i do : if i see picture we haven't got on our forum , i pinch them and offer the girl i pinch the idea to come on our forum to see ours.
Because there are hundreds of ideas but i cannot put them all here .
this is like an exchange :blush:
