What’s in the TODDLER Box? – Jack of All Trades

When you think of November, what’s the first thought that pops into your head? Mine is Thanksgiving. A day we set aside to celebrate with loved ones and remember all the things we have to be thankful for in our life. One of which is our Community Helpers- the police officers, doctors, firemen, mail carriers, and so much more- that help our lives function well and who I know I take for granted. Have you ever thought what would happen if we didn’t have garbage men?! I don’t want to go there after witnessing all the dirty diapers I change in a day.

Our Toddler box from Experience Early Learning is all about Community Helpers and has 80 different activities to do with them over this month! Wanna see what’s in the box? Check it out! It is absolutely delightful.

The Monthly Contents bag comes with the materials you will use throughout the month, but this isn’t all your materials. There are weekly content bags as well!

Here are the Weekly Materials bags. Each bag contains 20 activity cards and most of materials to do each activity. That is a total of 80 toddler activities to do each month!

Each weekly bag also comes with a book to add to your library. Yay!

Let’s check out what is in the Character Trait of the Month weekly bag which is Resourcefulness.

Inside the weekly bag is a calendar page. The calendar tells you what Daily activity goes with each lesson. There are 4 daily activities for all 5 days of the week. You can pick and choose what you want to do or do them all! They are so easy to repeat as well so if a toddler loves it, you can bring it out again and again (which you know is what they will ask for)

Here are all the materials included in the weekly bag.

Here are my faves!
These are the Activity Cards. 20 of them are included each week, so 80 Activity Cards for the month! The top right number shows what cards you use for each day. I love the picture showing how to set up the activity. It quickly lets me know what materials I need from the bag and which ones from home I need to add.

All these cards would help me set up 4 stations for our 2nd day of studying Resourcefulness.

I love the back! It quickly shows what materials I need, how to play with my little guy, and how I can assess or challenge him.

Pretty nifty huh? That is just ONE week yall. One! Want to see the other weekly content bags? Check them out…

This Little Piggy weekly materials bag. I can not wait to dig into this one! Playing This Little Piggy is one of my son’s favorite things to play right now.

I want to give you a really close look at the Daily Activity cards and how to find the supplies you will need for the week easily. Experience Early Learning has made it soooooo easy.

There is a supply list in each Weekly Materials bag. The red column has the materials you need to gather from home while the middle column is what is included in the bag. This supply sheet has everything listed for all 20 weekly activities. I love how the cards show the supplies too! I am one of those visual people.

The back of the cards show what materials I need to grab along with how to play with my toddler.
It allows me to meet him where he is at and how to assess him.

Check out the set up! I love how instead of just giving kids a sticker sheet, the suggestion is to place it on the wall low enough for kids to reach. This will help them with both fine motor and gross motor skills.

Whew! So that is what is in this month’s Community Helpers Toddler box. Whatcha think?!

I am totally stoked about having 80 activities to pull from that will help my toddler feel like a big boy while I am homeschooling my 5 year old daughter. Activities just for him instead of me scrambling around trying to find him something to keep him busy. I am excited this box will help me be INTENTIONAL with him while I am homeschooling her.

Want your own box? Yeah you do! Check it out here. You can make it a Christmas or birthday gift, or ask a grandparent to get you a subscription box for your little learner this Christmas!

Want to see how it all plays out this month? Be sure to like us on Facebook where I will be able to update you on our weekly adventures. Hope to see you there and back here next week! Happy learning friends!
