Take a break from all the clothes sorting during your self isolation and put your washing basket to a more fun use!

There are so many different options depending on the age and stage of your child.

Using string and the holes in your basket, make a spiders web for your baby to work out how to get to their toys beneath.

Or you could turn your wash basket into a boat or create a cosy space to read with a cushion and a blanket.

Using lightweight balls, encourage children to take turns throwing balls into the basket.

Enjoy!
