Free Home Made Toys.

I remember when I was little I loved playing with

Pots and Pans,
Wooden spoons,
Home made Musical insrtuments,
Home made glue (flour and water) for sticking cataloge pic to make own college,

What a MSE my Mum and Dad were. I loved toys too.

Has anyone else got any other ideas for my DD, friends children and family?

Both of mine love to collect shells ...and then stick them on a plant pot with readymade filler. The filler costs £1 in the pound shop but gives hours of pleasure and the pots look lovely afterwards as well !!!

I used to make people out of dolly pegs with bits of wool for hair and scraps of material to make clothes.

i was into making 'science' toys (i had a book but i think the library would still have one) like a paper helicopter and a homemmade submarine (with baking soda and a bottle) oh and that goo made out of cornflour that is liquid and then goes solid when you press on it.
