Activities for babies

What activities are you doing at home with your babies? I feel like I'm not doing enough with my baby during the day. It's hard to do anything outside since it's been so cold. We usually just play with toys, watch Ms. Rachel, and use to walker. Any ideas would be great!

Body books on anatomy and “private parts”

Any recommendations for books that teach toddlers about their bodies as they start to grow and explore themselves more? My daughter has started asking about her vagina. (Important to note: We believe in teaching her the proper names for things and destigmatizing shame around our own bodies)

If you normally go out daily and your child doesn’t want to go out.. do you?

Fresh air and vitamins D daily is very important to us. Not sure what’s gone on here but my 2 year old daughter has always loved going out for walks, going to the park etc but lately I feel she’s been too lazy to pop out even if it’s just for a little bit.
