Playskool Mrs. Potato Head Beach Spudette
(Hasbro $14.99)
Closest thing to the Mr. Potato Head you probably had when you were a kid. Beach Spudette comes with 17 pieces of beach appropriate props such as sunglasses, straw hat, lobster claws, flip flops, extra eyes, lips and hands. Also a fun way to develop fine motor skills and language of knowing and naming body parts and clothing. Marked for 2 & up, but we think this is more appropriate for true preschoolers and early school age players of 3 to 7, who have the dexterity to put and pull the pieces.
SNAP GAME: Play a riddle game of saying: "I Spy with My Little Eye something Mrs. Spudette uses to smell flowers." Or, "I Spy with My Little Eye something Mrs. Spudette uses to hear music." Use colors to describe what you spy or position words. If possible invite the child to give you a riddle about something he sees.
Ages: Preschoolers, Early School
