Use a container such as a shoe box, tin or something similar with a lid. Place a small toy, rattle or block inside the chosen container and close the lid. Shake the container to make a sound. Ask the baby what is inside. Stress the word‘inside’. Open the container and let the baby peek inside. Take the object out of the container and let the baby feel and look at it. Name the object and tell the baby to put it back in the container. Replace the lid and shake the container. Again ask the baby what is inside and allow him to peek, remove the lid and retrieve the object that is inside. Repeat this activity as long as there is interest.

At another time, change the object that is to be placed inside the container. This will add interest and will assist the baby in learning the names of the different objects that are chosen to hide in the container. He will also discover that the different objects make different sounds when they are shaken in the container.
