Eyeball Drop: Fine Motor Activity

I set Eyeball Drop up for my 20 month old twins when I need to get a few things done in the kitchen.

Unfortunately, I only had one cardboard tube at the time so I taped it up on the wall and placed all the eyeballs I had into a bowl underneath and invited them to drop them down.

To help get them started, I dropped one down myself and they were immediately keen to try themselves.

Fine Motor Halloween Activity Hit

With just one cardboard tube this activity only lasted about 10-15 minutes but if you add more tubes to create a more complicated run for the eyeballs to take it would entertain for much much longer!
