Snowed in with toddler

[Anonymous]

What do we do all day? We have played with the same toys and books all week. No interest in going outside in slush snow mud rain so please don’t say outside.

Outside. Send the kid out, you stay inside.

Don’t get this at all. Ours helps and follows whatever we are doing at we love hanging out w her. Like…what is this about entertaining them all day? So

Snowed in?!? The shit isn’t even sticking to the roads or sidewalk. Take her out to run errands with you.

Make salt dough! You likely have all the ingredients at home. You can make fun ornaments, or just use it as Play-Doh. If you have any essential oils you can add that for a sensory experience.

Is she too young for an obstacle course around the house? Put all the cushions from the couch/chairs on the floor and let her jump into them. Race up and down the hallway. Do you have dried beans to spare, you can let her play with them and a measuring cup, moving them between two bowls. Check out BusyToddler on Instagram, her website has tons of activities. I was a SAHM with a toddler in an apartment so I remember trying to fill endless miserable rainy days, but it’s been a while since I had a toddler.

Yes, mine loves sitting quietly in my office watching me on my computer as I finish writing docs.

You don't need to plan every second with your kid.

It’s very windy and cold. Not everyone had a car or arctic predilection.
