Busy Box 2 - Magnifying Glasses

This is crazy simple idea but amazingly effective and I have to give full credit to Nana.  My mum looked after my son 2 days a week whilst I am at work and bought over this packet of magnifying classes (plastic ones) a few months ago and they have been an endless source of entertainment.

We have used them for many things including
- exploring outdoors
- reading books
- finding things on the floor
- looking at pictures in books
- finding hidden things.

One more than one occasion I have sent him outside and asked him to find me a caterpillar or ant or similar, he usually gets distracted and plays with something else but it keeps him busy which is the goal.
