    Toddler Stacking

    Mormor left these sandbakkelse molds with us on her last visit. I haven't used them yet, but that hasn't stopped New Kid from using them for stacking practice.  He's hard at work practicing his fine motor skills!

    Granted, most people don't have sandbakkelse molds, but be on the lookout for similar items from your kitchen that would work for your toddler: measuring cups and spoons? prep bowls? plastic cups?

      what are sandbakkelse? Are the molds sharp? I remember as a child cutting my fingers on custard tart molds. Ouch! 🙁

      They are a type of Norwegian cookie, a bit like a shortbread. These molds aren't particularly sharp, but I suppose they could be, depending on the manufacturer.

      We've got silicone cupcake molds that my girls love to play with, lots of fun and no sharp edges 🙂

      I love when everyday items become the focus of engaging play, makes a mockery of the millions of toys with bells and whistles available in stores today!

      Thanks for linking up to We Play 🙂
