How to try it

Stack three or four sofa cushions on the floor, then let your toddler push them over. Build the tower again and say \"ready, set\" before each tumble.

Materials

  • Sofa cushions

Safety note

Build on a clear, soft floor away from furniture corners, and keep cushions low enough that none can fall far.

Why it matters
