Tape Rescue Mission
Tape small toys to the high chair tray and let baby figure out how to pull them free.
In the Little Play app, this activity appears in week 25 of your baby's personalized plan.
How to play
1
Use painter's tape (low-stick) to tape a few small toys to baby's high chair tray.
2
Show baby the stuck toys and act surprised: "Oh no, they're stuck! Can you help?"
3
Encourage baby to pull and peel the tape to free the toys.
4
Celebrate each rescue and re-tape for another round!
What you need
• Painter's tape or masking tape
• A few small toys
• High chair with tray
Simple household items. No plastic toys needed.
Why it works
Peeling tape builds pincer grasp and fine motor strength while the challenge of freeing toys develops problem-solving skills and persistence.
Good to know
Use painter's tape, which is low-stick and easy to remove. Watch that baby doesn't eat the tape.
