If you have a sand box or access to a patch of dirt, this is a great activity for kids learning their letters, letter sounds or the difference between upper and lower case letters.

What a big girl my Kaia is! She’s sitting up so well and was just as happy as could be! We were out to eat for my son’s birthday, and I was so happy I didn’t have to hold her on my lap this time. Have you used your Sprout Shell in the high chair [...]
