Sometimes(lots of times) mommy just needs a few minutes to get dinner going without a little person demanding attention, right?
The Simple Play at Home Series gives you ideas to get your little person playing with quick setup ideas in each room. Today we are playing near the pantry with pantry finds: plastic spice bottles! Thus, bowling: pantry style!

My son then tried to knock it down by rolling another bottle towards the rest:
He counted them when they fell, and tried until all of them were down:
This kept this little person happily busy for a good 10 minutes, enough time for me to get dinner started!
While in the kitchen, use kitchen objects to play! We used a muffin tin for a memory game and silicone baking cups for more fun playing.
