Items to Extend Play:

With any play setup, it can be greatly beneficial to add items to increase interest, motivation, engagement, and interaction. Here are some items we used to extend play:

  1. Tongs: We used tongs to capture hiding spiders and eyeballs!

2. Bugnoculars: We love our Bugnoculars from Educational Insights, even if it’s with pretend bugs!

3. When we were ready to clean up, we decided to make a sensory bottle to play with later!

Perform activities recommended by Walk, Talk, Play at your own risk with appropriate adult supervision provided. Walk, Talk, Play is not responsible for any injury caused while performing these play activities.
