Toddler activities with socks

Socks are the toy you already have forty of. Pairing them is early maths, stuffing them into a basket is fine motor practice, pulling them onto hands is a puppet show, and a rolled sock is the safest indoor ball there is. The activities here all use socks, clean or from the laundry pile. They range from calm sorting to energetic tossing, and most also count as helping, which toddlers love. Steps, skills and switch-ups for each are written out below.
