Toddler Essentials for Eating and Reading Early On

June 16, 2017 by Michelle Cantu

As a mom of four the pressure is on to be on my A game when it comes to toddler essentials. I am setting the bar high to make sure that my girl earns an A+ as she starts becoming more and more independent. As they say it’s never to early to start learning those life skills. I’m sharing toddler essentials to help your baby eat independently and jump into early reading. 

Marcus & Marcus Lola the Giraffe Silicone Baby Bib Review

Eating Essentials for Toddlers

Milestones are fast and furious for babies. One of my most favorite milestones is when feeding goes from bottles to table foods. Of course the greatest milestone is also the messiest. The Marcus & Marcus 6 Piece Feeding Set makes feeding time a lot less messy and fun.

Marcus & Marcus Eating Essentials

Marcus & Marcus is a smart and functional product label for adults, babies and young children. Re-imagine the chaos of parenting through the whimsical lens of our wacky animals.

Marcus & Marcus feeding sets come in Pokey the Pig, Lola the Giraffe, Ollie the Elephant and Willo the Whale. We received the Lola the Giraffe Marcus & Marcus 6 Piece Feeding Set that takes babies from their very first bite and stays with them forever. The Marcus & Marcus assortment of eating essentials are made from food-grade, soft and stain resistant silicone. All of the items are molded from BPA-free, PVC-free and phthalate-free materials. And best of all each of the pieces are dishwasher safe.

My Thoughts

Marcus and Marcus brings the modern style we love to our dinner table. We love the bold pieces that are perfect for our little one. The set is lightweight, simple to clean and easily portable, so I can pack it in my bag and take all the pieces along with us wherever we are. Feeding time is a breeze when you have these nifty pieces. My daughter has a clean surface she can eat on and all the essentials to practice her meal time routine.

Alphabet acorns activity set review

Early Reading Essentials

Letter recognition is the first thing you need to know to put those cognitive skills to work. The key is to make learning to read a part of your everyday by finding clever and fun ways to teach those skills during play time.

Alphabet Acorns Activity Set

The Alphabet Acorns Activity Set comes with 26 two-piece acorns with letters and 26 matching objects. The activity set has endless possibilities to learning letters. You can use the acorns to play a matching game, and match up the uppercase and lowercase letters. Play hide-and-seek by finding the object the has the letter sound of the acorn and place or remove the object that fits inside. The colors of the objects correspond to letters on the acorns. Practice making words, learning ABCs, beginning sounds, and more with this visual and tactile activity set.

Alphabet Acorn Set

Skill Development: Letter recognition, Alphabetical order, Upper and lowercase letters, Beginning sounds,Vocabulary building, Word Building, Sorting, Fine motor skills, Eye-hand coordination, Motor planning

My Thoughts

I love the Alphabet Acorn set, it’s an essential part of our plan to engage my toddler so that she  learns all about the alphabet. As my son embarks on going into first grade we are perfecting his talent. We spent the entire afternoon sounding and spelling out.  Making words with the acorns and discovering that some words aren’t always spelled the way they sound. I highly recommend the acorn activity set, it lights up your little ones the minute they start playing.
