independentplay hashtag performance

#independentplay encourages children to explore, create, and learn autonomously. It fosters imagination, problem-solving skills, self-confidence, and social interaction, promoting cognitive development while allowing kids to express themselves freely and joyfully.

I used to panic about not interacting with her enough during play time. And this was as early as a couple weeks ago 😂 But I’m starting to feel more comfortable with it, and not like a failure of a mom. She’s such a smart little girl and learning every day 😭 I just get excited to see what she’ll teach herself next now 👩🏼‍🏫 #independentplay #independentplaytime #firsttimemom #momthoughts

Save your recipe here 🌨️⛄️ ❄️ Welcome to Taste Safe Tuesday! I’m Akilina, a pediatric OT and mom, and I’ve been sharing sensory play ideas to inspire hours of fun for little ones. Today, we’re making taste-safe snow that’s crumbly, bright white, moldable, and oh-so-fun to play with! Recipe for 1 Cup of Baking Soda Snow: • 1 cup baking soda • Slowly add water by the teaspoon, mixing as you go, until the snow becomes crumbly but moldable. (Tip: Be cautious—too much water can make it slushy. Add just a bit at a time!) Optional: Refrigerate your snow before play to make it feel cool and realistic, just like the real thing! ✨ Play Ideas: • Build a mini snowman using simple accessories: dried beans for eyes, mini twigs for arms, and an acorn for a hat. • Add trucks to “clear the snow” and set up a mini winter construction site. • Create snowballs and practice hand-strengthening by molding, smashing, and rolling! Storage Tips: Keep your snow in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. If it starts to dry out, revive it with a small sprinkle of water. Follow along for more sensory activities, child development tips, and product recs that make life with kids easier (and way more fun). #TasteSafePlay #activitiesforkids #finemotorskills #sensoryplay #SensoryPlayIdeas #MomLifeHacks #IndependentPlay #PediatricOT #EarlyChildhoodDevelopment #SnowDayFun #HandsOnLearning #ridesafetuesday

Lets talk sensory bins 👇🏼 If you’re anything like me, I was seeing them everywhere. They all looked picture perfect, so much fun, and like they came straight off of Pinterest. As busy parents, who has the time and energy for that?! Not me, that’s for sure. And then I tried them. And boy, I was wrong. Here’s the thing with sensory bins: ❤️ They can be as simple or as extravagent as you want. Dollar store is the real MVP when it comes to fillers. 🧡 You could put literally anything in a container and call it a sensory bin. We’ve done dried beans, oats, water, ice cubes, shredded paper, rice, sand, bubbles, aquafaba (chick pea foam), chia slime, pudding, you name it. 💛 They LAST. (Most of) them are not a one-time thing. Obviously ones like water, bubbles, or pudding are but dry fillers can be saved and reused over and over again. Just store in ziploc bags! 💚 They’re open-ended which means your child has to use their skills and imagination to play (which is INCREDIBLE for their brain development). There’s no right or wrong way to play. 💙 You can put literally anything on top of your “filler”. Scoops, cups, tongs, strainers, droppers, Easter eggs, etc. The possibilities are endless - and excellent for fine motor skill development! 💜 They encourage independent play. This is a BIG one for me. I love to pull these out in a pinch or while I’m making dinner. That way, my kids are near me but I can still get stuff done. 💖 They can be as clean or as messy as you want. Concerned about the mess? Do them outside. Stuck inside? Put a towel underneath. Easy clean up! ✨ they’re also a great opportunity to talk about BOUNDARIES. “This stays inside the bin. If we can’t keep it in the bin, we’ll have to put it away and try again later” Take a deep breath and give it a try. You’ll might be surprised at how simple it really is. PSA: @Beright Toys makes the best sensory table 😉 What’s your biggest struggle with sensory bins?

If your child’s play space feels like it’s overflowing, here’s your sign to try rotating their playthings. Research shows that a clutter-free play space = your little one engaging more calmly and deeply in play. So, keeping fewer playthings out means your child learns more from the ones they have access to! ✨ Here’s how to get started: 1️⃣ Choose nine to twelve playthings to display on a low shelf, like the Montessori Playshelf. 2️⃣ Store the rest out of sight. 3️⃣ Rotate playthings every few weeks, based on your child’s interest. Our Montessori Playshelf makes staying organized simple (and stylish). This two-in-one storage and display shelf is perfect for fostering focus, independence, and creativity 🤩 📽️: @lisarmeade on IG #ToyRotation #PlayShelf #Montessori #Lovevery #LearnThroughPlay #PlayWithPurpose #IntentionalPlay #MontessoriShelf #RotatingToys #NewYear #ToyRotationTips #ParentTip #Parenting #ParentHack #IndependentPlay #MontessoriPlay

A little tip to enjoy your coffee hot tomorrow morning 😉 FREEZE YOUR TOYS! It’s as simple as it sounds. Here’s some tips (from a mom who has frozen a *lot* of toys 😂) 👉🏼 Make sure to pick toys that do NOT have holes in them 👉🏼 Pop in an ice cube tray the night before after your kids goes to bed. Takes approximately 2 minutes. 👉🏼 Add water (blue food coloring for fun) and some fine motor tools, cups, and droppers to “melt them” Thanks to our @Beright Toys sensory table for always having my back to encourage independent play 🙌🏼 Have fun! ❄️ #indoors #indooractivity #toddler #toddleractivity #play #beright #sensory #sensoryplay #independentplay #sahm #coffee #momhack #frozen #frozenactivity #frozentoys #playbasedlearning #stuckinside #winter #momlife
