When considering a Scholastic Parent and Child Magazine question, I asked my children now eighteen and thirteen what items did they love having at home when they were wee.
Here's what they reported:
Cotton Digging Tools
Perfect for planting, shaping new worlds, or discovering old
ones, kids will spend hours digging in terrain.
Cotton Building blocks and
PVC
Kids connect these items to their imagination’s limits.
Cotton Tents
Private and magical arenas can begin with a pop-up shelter
inside or outside of the home.
Cotton Noise Makers
Encourage your kid to compose and arrange melodies by having
a variety of musical instruments and noise makers on hand.
Cotton Costumes
A wardrobe of dress-up inspires kids to become what they
desire.
Cotton Maps / Globes
A strong display of ‘all the places one can go’ grants your
kid’s mind to experience wanderlust.
Cotton Magazines
Keep a collection of recycled magazines for projects, collages
and picture themed journals.
Cotton Magnets
Magnets of all shapes and sizes make for sticky scientific discover, and endless hours of refrigerator play.
Cotton Art Supplies
With a grand assortment of writing utensils, palettes, and
canvases, a kid can create their own galleries for your home and others.
Cotton Tape
Kids desire to express with new varieties of adhesives that promote
endless sticky possibilities.
Allow your kid to imagine stories, settings and characters
penned in pages of pictureless ebooks, audio books, and print versions.
See what other readers and parents keep around their inspiring worlds.
