Tugging box

This simple game helps baby learn cause and effect while also teaching them textures and colours.

Grab an old M&Y box and puncture some holes in it. Thread various colours, textures and lengths of ribbon and/or laces through the holes and tie knots in the ends.

Talk to baby showing her how that if she is pulls one end of a ribbon is causes it to shorten somewhere else.  Talk about the colours and patterns on the ribbon too.
