We just got back from a trip to Washington DC to visit Cameron’s grandparents. We of course went back to the fabulous Wilson Aquatic Center for some swimming. There were so many families there with young kids and babies which was so nice to see. Anyways, while there, I got Cameron some stacking cups, since he has been really into the ones he has at home. I got him these cute Fisher Price ones that come in rainbow colors.
Fisher Price Stack & Roll Cups
They are cups that are easy to stack, but also can be turned into balls when the two sides are put together. There is also a ball that jingles (which seems suspiciously like cat toy to me!) Cameron really enjoyed the set, both in the bath, and out. I like them much more than the set of stacking cups we have at home in Brooklyn (Click here if you want to check those out as well).
Cameron loves things that make noise when he moves them, so I took an empty water bottle and put some rice in it. It was a winner from the start! If you are concerned about BPA, use one of your baby’s bottles with the top on instead and let them shake shake shake to their heart’s content!
Cameron wants anything I have – remote controls, iPhone, my keys, so today I decided to get him his own set of keys to play with. I went to Clinton Hill Hardware on Myrtle and picked up a few uncut keys – some car keys (because they are on the larger side) and then some house keys of different shapes, a few rings, and a little charm with a “C” on it. The whole thing cost just a few dollars, and Cameron loves it! Now he can play with them, and I won’t be worried about my keys getting lost… for now, at least!
I was about to throw away my empty paper towel roll when I thought… “maybe Cameron would like this.” Like would be an understatement! It brought about half an hour solid of entertainment, which in mom and baby land is practically an eternity. Next time, don’t throw it out!
