Learning About the Mailbox
This rainy-day activity teaches your child about mailboxes and how to mail a letter.
Learning About the Mailbox
Materials
- Shoebox with lid
- Scissors
- Unopened junk mail
Directions
- Cut a large slit in the lid of a shoebox.
- If you like, cover the box and lid (separately) with colored paper, or decorate with paints, markers, and stickers.
- Place the lid on the box and show your toddler how to "mail" letters.
- If you don't mind her doing so, she may enjoy ripping open the letters as much as mailing them.
- Store the mail inside the box when play is over.
