“Children are our most precious natural resource. Through a child’s eyes war, hunger, and all other horrors of mankind cease to exist; if only for a short while. It does not matter how much your net worth is, or when the next bills are due. To a child all that matters are the stolen moments filled with love, and maybe a little imagination.”

This Moment
"A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor, and remember." SouleMama
Her loves them, They actually live on a shelf under my nightstand, but he always pulls them out. I was trying to capture his messy morning hair believe it or not, but the picture was so cute :) Be well.
Thanks! Would you mind telling my in-laws that? They think a bowl of pine-cones is a bad toy ;) Seriously though we have a few toy rules that help make them look nice. 1. Toys must be lovely. If I'm going to pick them up a thousand times a day, they better not be ugly or I might just chuck them out the window ;) 2. No plastic (with very few exceptions. I'm a sucker for Papo figures) 3. No Batteries! (I'm not replacing them. Plus, he's scared of battery operated toys. Yippiee! Dodged that bullet).
Ah yes! Has he started throwing them at the wall yet? LOL! Mine has... we had to take away the wooden ones for a while. :-) So sweet!
Here is mine this week if you feel like stopping by : Went walking in the warm and wet yesterday. It was magical! http://familyfaithfoodfabric.wordpress.com/2014/05/02/this-moment-14/
When he throws something that we would rather he not, we direct him to his special basket of throwing toys. I'm working on updating it right now, but as soon as I'm done I'll post pictures. Be well.
Hope he had fun exploring those balls. My little loved them at that age :) Enjoy your weekend.

ReplyDeleteMe to, He loves textures.
DeleteYou really cannot go wrong with balls! And those look especially fabulous! Bet he had a blast!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog! Have a great weekend!
Yep, Balls, a must for any toddler... Along with trees, pine-cones, string, and paper bags ;) It's so easy to entertain them at this stage. Be well.
