Hi everyone! Welcome to Easy Play Ideas. We LOVE making videos about play and easy activities that you can do at home. A lot of our ideas use every day items found in most homes. BUT now and again we find something so cool and exciting that we HAVE to show you! We also try to show kindness to the environment by using recycled items as much as possible. Take a peek at the photos of our videos and choose one to watch. Use the ideas from the video to make something of your own to play with or explore with. Click on the SUBSCRIBE button to join in the fun. PLAY IS LEARNING AND LEARNING SHOULD BE FUN!

Thank you❤
You're welcome 😊
This is a very nice game... But can we get the measurements?
The backboard is 46cm x 12cm. The top flap with the cut out square is 10cm wide and the cut square is 6cm x 6cm. The + flap and the = section is 8cm wide.
Thank you so much for the help
This is wonderful.
Thank you. We love thinking of unique ideas to share with our audience.
Your skill in crafting dolls and puppets is matched only by your ability to convey the joy and wonder they bring to your audience
Thank you. They are simple dolls but the children really love them!
These fairy houses are a great way to repurpose plastic bottles. The houses can be used as fairy houses or houses for small dolls. Adults can do the cutting and kids can help decorate. Check out our four different houses with different designs and techniques.
The dynamic design of the board allows you to change the order of the sensory items or update them to put in new ones. This little project is great for babies, toddlers and young children.

These dolls were such a hit with the kids and instantly disappeared on adventures! Some of these ideas are even simple enough for slightly older children to create independently.
I am a kid and I am watching this 😀
Thank you for watching. Our videos are suitable for kids to watch and help you get ideas for playtime with help from your adult.

Shoebox crafts are a great way to repurpose packaging into playtime fun. Check out some of our other videos that use cardboard and shoeboxes to make toys and games.
Don't forget to make a cardboard hairdryer like ours out of cardboard tubes to enhance your hair salon playtime!
This fun and creative idea was inspired by children's love of nature. Creating trees inspired by nature is a great way to celebrate Earth Day or invite children to explore a nature-themed loose parts activity.
Bottle lids are a great everyday item that we collect from various household bottles and repurpose for play and learning. These are just some of our ideas.
These cardboard tools are so easy to make from cardboard things you have around the home. They are great for children to explore painting and process art.
We get asked all the time for fun ways to help children develop fine motor skills to encourage foundation skills for writing. There are so many ways to do this so we hope to bring some engaging and playful ways to help with this! For our first idea, we used elastic bands in a number of ways, you can select your favourites or try them all!

Try some process weaving with children by setting up some of these easy low-prep weaving ideas. Kids can work on their fine motor skills and weave away with different colours of yarn or ribbon. There is no expectation of producing a product with these ideas, therefore it isn't a worry if the pattern isn't followed perfectly.
This awesome reusable cardboard toy is a great way for children to explore their creativity and design skills. Check out our website for free templates of the outlines we used for our flip book.

Read our blog about this cardboard hundreds board to find out more about it www.easyplayideas.com/blog/diy-cardboard-100s-board-ideas
This hundreds board is one of the best things we made. There are so many ways to use it. It provides a visual way for children to see 100. It can be used for maths, counting, games and much more!
This is a great idea as an alternative to sand play. If you want your little ones to have messy play with slightly easier cleanup then this could be the idea for you!
If you don't have a tuff tray, you can make your puzzle in a large, shallow cardboard box. Or make your own frame using cardboard to the size of your choosing.
How to make the track and some track-building ideas are shown about halfway through the video.
Too small
You can adjust the size of the highchair with a bigger box depending on the size of your doll :)
you can make it bigger lol
Making this for my daughter she recently got her first baby doll and she loves to feed her baby doll it's so cute. Great video! Hopefully I can make it as well haha
