PEEK A BOO, I LOVE YOU!


I haven't been this excited about a new product in a long time! The Peek A Boo Bag is a genius new toy that every toddler should have. Simple, yet complex, the Peek A Boo Bag is a fabric "pouch" with a clear window. Inside are plastic white beads mixed with several small treasures. A removable fabric tag snaps to the corner to let you know what to "find." The Peek A Boo Bag is designed for ages 3 and up and comes in 3 versions: boy, girl, and ABC. This is the perfect travel toy, it's small, soft, and provides little ones with a QUIET and intriguing activity. Older children can read the tag to find the hidden items. Younger children can just take a peek to find hidden treasures or you can call out items for them to find. The construction is flawless and after LOTS AND LOTS of use, neither of my boys have been able to bust any seams!

The minute I saw the Peek A Boo Bag, the teacher in me went crazy. This is such a fantastic learning tool. The ABC bag can be used for letter recognition, "find the letter C, what sound does a C make, what is a word that starts with C?" Also, it can be used as a spelling activity. Have your child find their name or school spelling words. Another great activity would be to use the boy/girl bags as story or poem starters. Have the child close their eyes, shake up the bag, then open their eyes. The first item they see would be the topic of the story or poem. Do it again and the next item would have to be used in the next sentence.

The Peek A Boo Bag would make a fantastic gift. Visit the Peek A Boo Stuff site today to find out where you can get your own Peek A Boo Bag. Remember, the Holidays are quickly approaching, you may want to tell Santa that Peek A Boo Bags fit in stockings....
