How to create the Alphabet Blocks Shower Activity

When looking around for fun activities for my friend’s baby sprinkle I was surprised at how boring the options were. As a child of a teacher, I couldn’t help with going with something educational. This lets your guests be creative and teach the baby to be in the future.
