Reindeer Treasure Basket

I love using treasure baskets to bring books and story time to life! A few carefully selected props can really make any story much more interactive especially for young children who struggle to sit still long enough to focus on the story!

Here’s what I used to create a Reindeer treasure basket:

• a flat basket
• Usborne ‘That’s not my reindeer’ book
• Bath mitt puppet
• a carrot
• sticks for antlers
• red felt balls
• a clear container with a plastic reindeer hidden in snow aka rice

Lots of sensory elements for a little one to fiddle with as you share the story together!
