Play and Learn

I have started dividing the toys into two bins so that it is easier for babies to reach toys.  This seems to help those first few chaotic minutes when the toys first come out.  It also helps at clean up time because I can completely put away one bin while still having some toys out for the last of our babies.  A grandparent requested the tunnel, so I pulled that out again.  Even more brave ones this weeks who crawled through!
