Provide a sturdy bottle with a medium-size top and some wooden clothespins (without springs). Show the children how to turn the clothespins lengthwise and drop them into the bottle. Then demonstrate how to shake the bottle so the clothespins will fall out. Stand nearby to offer assistance and affirmation.
