A basket is much more than simply an organizational tool. It can be a versatile plaything. For babies, a basket offers early containment and sensory play. For toddlers, it supports schema play, activities based on cognitive frameworks that help your child process information. 👶You can fill the Treasure Basket from The Inspector Play Kit with collections of safe objects for your baby to explore. With your supervision, they may enjoy experiencing the tactile qualities of: ⭐Balls with different textures, like felt, plastic, and wood. ⭐Ribbons of various widths and colors. ⭐Kitchen items, like a whisk, basting brush, and measuring cups. 🧒As your child enters toddlerhood, they can use the Treasure Basket for schema activities, like dumping out or hiding objects. Through purposeful actions like these, they gather information about their environment. Common schema activities, include: 🧺Transporting objects from one place to another in the basket. 🧺Enclosing items by containing them in the basket. 🧺Enveloping objects by hiding them under the basket.
