I wanted to introduce printing to young toddlers (under 2's) but wanted tools which were strong and hard wearing, whilst still leaving a good Print! I rummaged around the toy boxes and found 4 objects which I felt were perfect for what I wanted. ("shape sorter" shape, Duplo tunnel piece, mega block and a cotton reel)
I put a small blob of paint into each bowl and arranged a different object in each bowl,
I then just let the children explore the objects in their own time and watched there creations
all the children enjoyed this opportunity to get creative with printing and could all use the objects without any support.
