Tuff tray round up - February

This month has gone from one extreme to the other with the tuff tray - for our first one in February we had bowls of snow and the last one was outside because the weather was so balmy. We did miss a Tuesday in February as we had birthday cards to make but we're doing pretty well with sticking to #tufftraytuesday.

Snow! As much as I love the idea of snow, the logistics of getting three boys kitted up to go outside and stay out for longer than the time we spent getting ready mean there are some definite benefits to bringing the snow inside!

We had pink rice for our tuff tray in the week of Valentine's Day, inspired by a friend who was staying with us. We don't have many heart shaped things in the house but I did manage to find some red and pink accessories to go with the rice.

A bonus tuff tray one weekend, mainly for smallest boy. He has been standing up at the sink and trying to feed things through the holes in the container that holds the cutlery so we had some pipe cleaners, spaghetti, vitamin syringes and things with holes! 

The final tray this month was outside in the sunshine - sponge boats, some of the toys from the water table and a piece of guttering off the side to act as a slide. I managed to get them to keep the aprons on for the first go but it didn't last and the smaller two boys were very wet by the end.
