Holding Attention

I received this stackable Russian doll as a gift from a friend back in high school. Hannah found it in the closet the other day and played with it for an hour and a half straight! I then left for Enrichment but Nic said she continued to play with it the rest of the night. Usually things don't keep her attention that long. She loved opening and closing them, and putting them inside of each other, over and over again! Its amazing how some of the simplest things, or things that aren't designated as toys, can offer the most enjoyment, interest and learning.

When Graysen found mind it kept her quite entertained too, but probably not that long, wow. The bad thing is I'm missing some pieces now.

That is great when you find toys or nick nacks that can hold a childs attention.

What? We didn't sit together in Calculus BC with dumb look on our faces for nothing! You can certainly teach a math class. I finally responded to your tag.
