So, I've decided to resurrect this thing yet again! I thought I would share some of my top 10 lists with you...all 2 of you. I'll post these weekly (or maybe bi-weekly...or maybe even monthly. We'll see how this goes). The lists are definitely not exhaustive and I would LOVE to hear any ideas that you would like to share. Thanks for reading...Amy. :)
10 Things to Do With Your Toddler
1. Have a birthday party for one of their stuffed animals. Candles and presents included. We used a tea light and wrapped up a cookie.
2. Build a fort and eat a picnic lunch in it.
3. Get a bucket and pick up rocks and paint them.
4. Draw a picture for one of their friends and mail it to that friend.
5. Visit a nursing home.
6. Make a special treat/picture for daddy, thanking him for being such a great dad.
7. Build a train for their stuffed animals out of cardboard boxes or blocks.
8. Visit ‘Hubbard’s Cupboard’, a great website, and download some great resources there: http://www.hubbardscupboard.org/
9. Get some rice or pasta (if summer, water) with various containers and utensils. My son LOVED to pour rice into each different cup and bucket and pretend to make soup, etc.
10. Make an airplane, or some other vehicle, out of cardboard boxes. They can paint it, etc.

Great list Angie! I make #3 :)
yay!!!
another idea - come visit daddy & friends at the office! bring them a fun treat if you feel so inclined.
my mom took us on the city bus once in a while as an adventure...even tho we had a perfectly fine car :o)
we also did picnics in the winter at springwater park with hotdog weiners in thermos' - so fun!
Great list! Here's a few of our favorites:
Burry each other's feet in the sandbox, cook together!, color/paint (we love sending things in the mail!), parks, berry picking, fishing with daddy and campfires at home any time of the day!
PS. LOVE the new look! :)
Fun Fun List. We're really into cars around here so we have a growing collection of frozen pizza bases (those cardboard rounds) that have been drawn into Tim Hortons, the YMCA, a firestation, etc. Who needs a car mat!
hooray! welcome back...
I'm not a mom, but a favorite we did the other day over here is build obstacle courses and time each other racing around the house through them! ;)
love you!
