How to try it
Open both ends of a large cardboard box or join two together to make a tunnel on the floor. Crawl in alongside your toddler, then peek out the far end and say boo. Let them lead the way back through.
Materials
- Large cardboard box
Safety note
Check the box for staples and sharp edges, make sure it can hold your toddler's weight without collapsing, and stay close at the open end.
Review this idea in your private family planner before saving.
Why it matters
Moving through a tight space helps your toddler learn how big their body is and how to steer it.
Benefit
