It can be tricky to think of ways to include your baby / toddler in the festive fun sometimes so thought I would create an advent calendar this year filled with lots of sensory play items.
The majority of the items I have used we already owned as your little ones don’t need new items all the time and Christmas is expensive enough already!
My idea is to choose one item each day to use in our play…super simple but will be so much fun!
And if you’re looking for some inspiration for ways to play with the items, make sure you have our baby mini playPROMPTS to give easy ideas to hand!
Here's a list of the items I included in my Baby Sensory Play Advent Calendar…
1. Sensory scarf

3. Wooden figures and trees
4. Christmas book- Little Robin Red Vest
