Toddler Pom Pom Drop

Moms Morning Memo

On the lookout for a quick and entertaining activity for your little one? I've got just the thing for you today – it's called the Toddler Pom Pom Drop. It's super simple to set up, but oh-so-fun for the kiddos. Plus, it's great for their fine motor skills.

Activity of the day

Toddler Pom Pom Drop

Here's how to turn a simple idea into a mini learning adventure.

What you’ll need:

  • Colorful pom poms

  • Tubes or paper rolls

  • Tape

  • A container or box

Step-by-step process

  1. Tape those tubes upright where your little one can reach.

  2. Show them how to drop a pom pom in.

  3. Let them explore and figure out where it goes.

Why we love this activity:

Pom pom drops are great for tiny hands working on fine motor skills and eye coordination, as those little pom poms aren't always easy to pop into the tubes. Plus, it gets kids thinking. Each drop is a mini experiment: "Where does it go? What happens next?" For the little ones, it's like magic. They're learning that the pom pom is still there, even if they can't see it, which is a big deal in their world of understanding.
