I’m often asked about activities to keep kids amused while they’re patching. I saw this awesome sorting game on the web a few months ago. It was a pie that had all different coloured ‘fillings’ that the child has to sort. Then I saw the price tag (upwards of $50!) and I thought to myself, surely there’s a more economical way to achieve the same outcome?
A little trip to Sam’s Warehouse (although it could have been Crazy Clarks, The Reject Shop etc they’re both awesome for stuff like this), and $5 later and I had the Super Simple Pom Pom Game!! And Dane loves it. I only bring it out once a week so the fun doesn’t wear off but it does the trick.
