Have You Played With Pegboards as Kids?

What's in those pegs that keeps us occupied?

From the lens Creative Play with Peg Boards: A Parent's Review.

Do you recall playing with them? What was your favorite design you created?

Does your toddler / preschooler have a pegboard? Does he / she like it?

    I had a light-bright growing up. Loved it. My son had one too, and he loved his. Although they are not called a peg board, I believe them to be very similar.

    My daughter loved playing with her pegboard! She grew up to be an artist and her artistic talent was obvious from an early age. She would make quite elaborate designs on her pegboard :), so for children who enjoy creating designs, the pegboard can be used well past toddlerhood!

    This is a good suggestion for my nephew who'll be 4 years old at the beginning of October. Thanks, Michelle.

    Almost each time you make a toy page you bring me back to my own childhood in the late 60's. Here again, back to the past and a great reminder of all those splendid things we would bo with our pegboards!
