Any crafty bees have ideas of what to do with the Medela Snappies bottles that you may have gotten from the hospital or with your Medela pump? Anything fun that would also involve my 2.5 year old?
I just cleaned out a closet and have a ton of them.

@BabyBruins: bowling? Glue them to cardboard as a ball drop/toss?

I filled them with different things like beans and rice and use them as musical instruments.

@BabyBruins: there is a Montessori activity called sound cylinders, they would need to be opaque but the idea is you fill two cylinders with the same item- beans, a block, whatever will make noise. Your toddler takes one and shakes it, listening carefully and then tries to find the shaker with the matching sound.
Another option to do with your toddler is to put a cotton ball in each one with different scents put on the cotton ball- essential oils and extracts are great for this and have them smell them. This is typically done in pairs like the sound ones. Both activities are meant to refine sensory awareness.
