The Bug has lots of little animal figurines so I try to incorporate them into his play though I have to pay attention to the fact that he does still mouth toys...
His favorite book has been Dinosaur Pet by Neil Sedaka for a while so we did lots of dinosaur play including excavating dinosaurs from ice! I froze the dinosaurs in glad ware containers (I filled them halfway with water, added the dinosaurs and froze it then filled the containers an refroze them to center the dinosaurs!)
We added some warm water to his bin and he played with the ice and watched as it melted.
We didn't do any more than that this time though you can try things like adding salt, using tools to pick at the ice, and other experiments with older children!
