I can't get my toddler to do anything other than sit and play with toys. We'll start the day with a good breakfast and being silly and then I'll start offering things for us to do that day. I'll suggest painting or some other arts and crafts, reading books, puzzles, going to different stores. He always tells me no h...

What is everyone doing with their 4 month olds? I find my LB gets bored very quick and with longer wake windows there’s only so much tummy time and play gym hell tolerate before he starts screaming at me!

Hi, Can anyone recommend any Instagram pages for EYFS play and craft ideas? I’m specifically looking for pages that clearly show what age the activities are appropriate for?

For example football, dancing, gymnastics.. We have friends whose kids do these kind of things outside of going to toddler groups and childcare.

Hi Moms! We just had our first baby and she’s now 7 weeks old. We want to go out and do things with her, but are clueless as to what all to do. What do you do & where do you take your littles? 💕

I will first say that we don’t do a lot of screentime but my wee one is still obsessed with bing and cocomelon 🙈 I was wanting to start introducing some other things that aren’t quite as babyish. She’s taken to Frozen, I’ve tried Trolls but she’s not as fussed 😂 The sooner the bing phase is over the better as I…

About the only free things we have are parks, the mall play area, and an amazing nature center. But other than that. Everything else will cost more money than we have. There's only so much running around Target and Walmart we can do before the kids get bored. I wish we had more free things to do for kids.

My LO nursery said they are allowed to have screen time playing 'educational videos' to the children at nursery. I think this is so cheeky especially with the high price we pay for nursery, why are they watching YouTube! I am mad cos I notice my LO is very familiar with the sounds of Ms Rachel and it makes me think ...

How long are you letting your toddlers watch the telly for? I feel like with the weather turning bad I’ve been relying on it abit more atm. She’s never been that interested in toys unless I’m sat playing with her and even then I’m lucky to get 15 mins. She’s mainly into climbing up things which is fine unless I need...

Typically on weekends we are on the move but it’s been yucky outside. What are your little ones doing during the day? We watch movies and i want to do less screen time but I honestly don’t know what to do.
