Are you interested in baby food jar craft? There are many ideas for recycling those baby food jars. This would have to be my all-time favorite use of those baby food jars. I have shared this idea with many of my friends and they have also said that it was a total success with their baby. It is so simple.

• Simply collect each lid from each jar, be it a baby food jar or the lid of the pasta sauce jar.

• Put them in the dishwasher and sterilize them.

• Then fill a large plastic jar with those lids. I buy my rice in a large plastic jar and it is perfect for scooping up the lids.

When my baby was less than 7 months old, he loved to hold his eyelids and hit them. He found that they rolled and then started stacking them. They were perfect for her little handshake.

At around 7 months he started putting them one at a time in the plastic jar.

At around 11 months he loved to tip over the plastic jar and try to open all the lids and then of course put them back on.

When he was about 14 months old he started using the lids for cooking.

Now 21 months old, he still plays with the lids on baby food jars.

We once borrowed a toy from a friend, as Jamie loved to play with it at home. When I asked if there was a toy that Jamie had that he wanted to borrow, he said, “Actually, could I have some of the baby food jar lids.”

The funniest toys are usually free and in our house all the time.
