Step 1: Gather six new kitchen sponges and a pair of scissors. To make the blocks more interesting, you can use various colors of sponges. 

Step 2: To make the sponge blocks, cut the new sponges into 4-inch shapes. Triangles, squares, and rectangles are the best shapes for little hands to manipulate and stack.

Step 1: Place your baby in a sitting position on the floor or in her high chair. 

Step 2: Place the sponge blocks in front of her and demonstrate how to pick them up and stack them to make a tall tower! Encourage your baby to stack the sponge blocks. She will have a great time knocking them down and dropping them on the floor, especially from her high chair! 

Step 3: Talk to your baby while you are playing together and use words to describe the sponge blocks like “square,” “rectangle,” “triangle,” “soft,” “red,” “blue,” “orange,” “big,” “small,” “tall,” “tower,” “bridge,” etc. You can also use words to describe the action during the activity like “build,“ “fall down,“ “stack,“ “knock down,“ “drop,“ “reach,“ etc. 

Step 4: Continue the activity for as long as your baby is interested in exploring the sponge blocks. Store the sponge blocks in a storage container or bag for future play.
