[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Institute independent playtime! If the 2.5 year old had an hour of independent playtime during 5 month old’s best nap, and 5 month old had 30 mins independent playtime during 2.5 naps, your nanny (and you!) would be much saner. https://www.babywisemom.com/independent-playtime-overview/ [/quote] Ah, yes, the equivalent of “blanket training”. Any book or person suggesting an active energetic toddler be left in a playpen to amuse themselves for up to an hour a day isn’t a good source of childcare information. You are suggesting 1.5 hours out of an 8.5 hour workday be spent with one child sleeping and one child being made to play independently. That seems a tad excessive, and I’m a nanny, not a parent. [/quote] PP here. You’re right. Waaaaaay better to park them in front of a screen for an hour then to have them play independently with engaging toys. :roll: [/quote]
