Yoghurt messy play!

Sometimes the spur of the moment ideas turn out to be the best! My toddler (18mo) was a little bit grumpy, and turning down all my activity ideas. Until I suggested ‘playing with yoghurt’. His face lit up and he said ‘yeth’ with a broad grin! So I completely improvised and put some yoghurt into a couple of bowls, and got out a few bits and bobs from around the kitchen to play with – a spoon, kitchen clip, dinosaur straw, tea strainer and some sprinkles. Who knew you could have so much fun with such simple ingredients! My grumpy toddler was grumpy no longer and he had a whale of a time. Yes, some of the yoghurt got eaten, but hey, it is yoghurt!
