New play ideas

With Christmas came all kind of great gifts for play.  We got water beads for L's sensory bin and he LOVED them!  I think he could have spent 12 or more hours in there if we would have had the time to let him haha.

We also did a glow bath on Christmas Eve night.  Can we say HUGE hit?  We put those cheap little glow sticks in the bathtub with L and turned the lights out.  He was entertained for quite some time with them.  He would lift out two at a time and compare them and then throw them back in the water.  :)
Another big Christmas hit was his fiber optic light.  He didn't really get to play with it until a few days after Christmas because we forgot to get batteries with it!  haha  He loved hitting the fibers as the lights would change colors, it looked really neat as if the light were making squiggly lines.
I think we did good this Christmas!
