Aquarium in Baltimore. Get the first tickets of the day.

Why not take her to the grocery store for a quick 20 min session. She can sit in the cart and be close to you. I have started to do this at my local store and we are in and out in 20 min or less and i go with a small list and whizz by. Its not crowded and she keeps her mask on.

This is op. She has phobia of ANY indoor places because it is all unknown and unfamiliar to her. I wish I could send her to music together or toddler gymnastic class, but I am not ready for that yet. And, I want her to get exposed and try my best to give her live normal life as safe as we could. That kid died in Hawaii trip is sad, and I understand there’s risk for kids even adults are fully vaccinated. Once they are vaccinated, hopefully next year, I hope to drop right in pre- covid life.

My last memory of me taking her to do any family activity indoor was she had no teeth & crawled around at library story time floor at February 2020, and I bet she had no memory of that.

OP your two year old is at more risk from some flu seasons than from COVID. I'm not being a COVID denier, the evidence is in print.

Once adults in your child's circle are vaccinated, especially high risk ones, let your kid live life. Be respectful of course, but live life.

Pools will be open soon. Perfect outdoor activity.

The weather is getting better and better. Focus on outdoor activities until cases come down (and they will as adult vaccination continues to be deployed). The zoo, playground, hiking. Why go indoors when it's spring/summer?

I hear the animals could get covid. Those petting zoo animals from the farm that you can pet and feed have close contacts with people on a daily basis, I would avoid farms.

Please tell me this is sarcasm

Op I would be cautious being indoors. There are so many great outdoor activities and the CDC is very clear that being outdoors greatly reduces your risk. Your two year old is still at risk.

How about another kids' house? Indoor playdates is probably something you would have normally done at this age and is probably safer assuming you know the vaccination status of the adults.

Target, right when they open. It’s usually deserted.

Stores are very safe. You're rarely around other people for more than a few seconds. 99% of people are still wearing masks.

My 2 year old has spend 95% of the time at grandparent place and our home for the last year. The other 5% is I take her to see dentist, pediatrician, and once a week playground ( just added a few months ago). High risk grandparents are finally fully vaccinated, and I & DH ( both high risk) is about to get 2nd shot. We have been really cautious, and that’s why we stay home & work from home the whole time. Once we are fully vaccinated, we are planning to expose her to more places, especially indoors. She can wear mask, but not for too long and mask is loose on her face ( so that she can breath). Except continue taking her to playground & walking in neighborhood, what other indoor places are considered safer and fun for us to go to? Department store vs supermarket vs paid indoor playground ( without ball pit)?
