Use white glue around the lid to make sure your toddler will not open the bottle. Let the glue dry. Demonstrate how to make a variety of sounds by shaking, rattling, and rolling the bottles. Let your toddler choose two rattles and you take the other two. Recite the rhyme and shake the rattles while moving about in the room.
Finale Use a variety of household objects to make shakers.
Be sure the lids are glued on securely so your toddler cannot take out the small objects. Fill plastic margarine containers with several spoons of chocolate chips. Fill plastic soda bottles half-full of dried miniature marshmallows. Fill square, gourmet coffee tins half-full of broken spaghetti noodles. Fill plastic bottles half-full of sand and pebbles.
