High chair activities for a 2 year old?

I'm looking for suggestions on activities for my 2 year old to do while sitting in the high chair while I'm cooking. I've tried giving him crayons and paper, and he eats the crayons. I've tried puzzles, but he just throws the pieces on the floor.

That's plenty, IMO. Two year olds are happy with just one present. In fact, don't be surprised if he ignores all of that and plays with a cardboard box instead. I have a 6, 2 and 7 month old boys and they got 5 presents each. I've learned that too many presents get confusing

Holocaust Museum: Enhanced youth exhibit inspires kids to stand up

More than two years later, the simplest of words continue to be as meaningful as ever.

“Make a difference.”

The Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center Sunday celebrated its newly enhanced Miller Family Youth Exhibition — now called “Make A Difference! The Miller Family Youth Exhibition.”

When this special part of the museum was dedicated in the summer of 2009, Museum Executive Director Richard Hirschhaut called the space on the ground floor “an experiment” of sorts.

Said Hirschhaut only months after the museum opened: “It’s an extraordinary experiment predicated upon the firm belief that young people as early as we can ought to be and deserve to be given the opportunity to think about their role in the world, to think about the kind of people they wish to be, the kind of people they wish to be defined as becoming, and to do all of that in a space that is engaging and colorful and lends itself to imagination, and that is defined by each and every child.

Both of my kids (4 ½ and 22 Mos.)love fire trucks so this puzzle was a big hit. The large size (4 feet long) makes it a good size for use on a coffee table. t is also large enough that several kids can work on it without banging into each other.

The design is clear with strong colors and nice details (look for the dalmatian in the window). The pieces are durable for cardboard (my kids walk across the puzzle constantly and it has not been damaged).

My only fault with the puzzle is it is so popular I can never get it put away for more than a few minutes. Once taken apart, the kids want to put it together again.
