Toddler Pouring Activity

ED has been pouring with a pitcher since she was about 18 months old; she’s practiced with water, beans, rice, beads and so forth. In fact, she pours her own milk into her cereal every morning with the little pitcher you see in the bottom picture. One skill that is very diificult for her is to start/stop pouring. So, here are a couple of pictures of her using different types of pitchers practicing pouring into different ice cube trays. I make it a little more interesting for her by coloring the water with food dye, which she has to stir with a spoon before pouring into the trays.
