Ever since our baby has started eating food on her own, the floor under the kitchen table has been a disaster area. Crumbs, spills, chunks of food. Her technique is improving but still I would say about half of her food ends up on the floor. Vacuuming would be a daily exercise but who has […]

Jenga is a classic game that requires hand-eye coordination and good fine motor skills. The first few rounds are usually easy as you carefully remove a block from the tower and place it on top. But the tension mounts as the game progresses and less stable blocks are available. It all comes together (falls apart?) […]
