Invitation to Build with Popsicle Sticks and Clothespins

July 29, 2016 by Sarah Leave a Comment

A Quiet Bin Idea Photo on Friday (a little lengthy, I’ll have to think of a catchier title …)

Today I wanted to share this super simple quiet bin. It is an invitation to create with popsicle sticks and clothespins. I call it an invitation because there is no expected outcome. I am not asking them to try to build a bridge, or make animals, I am simply inviting them to create.

A great quiet time activity. These quiet boxes are perfect for developing fine motor skills and independence.

This quiet bin develops fine motor skills, STEM skills, problem solving skills, and strengthens little hands for future writing too.

I hope you and your little ones have a lovely weekend, thank you so much for reading!
