Uninterested in zoo and aquarium

Is it normal for my 2.5 year old to be completely uninterested in the zoo or aquarium. We went to a local zoo and all she wanted to do was play in the rocks, sand or sun around. At the aquarium she just ran through it. My daughter just seems to not have many interests in things. And if she does it’s for a week and m...

Who can relate?

I'm super depressed and people always encourage me to do hobbies, but I don't even have time to do the things I need to do (cook, clean, laundry, etc) so how on earth am I supposed to do hobbies?

Taking little one on holiday?

I feel super conflicted on what to do. We have a holiday coming up soon and little one would be 14/15 months. My mums offered to watch her because she thinks it’ll be hard and lots of travelling with the little one. It does seem logical but I’m not too sure if I’ll regret it. Do I take them with me or leave them wit...

Activities to entertain a 4 year old?

I'm babysitting my friend's four year old in a few days and my eldest is only one so I'm not really sure what are some good activities for that age to keep them occupied all day. I don't have much experience with kids older than two 🤷🏻‍♀️

Worrying

Do any of you other mommas worry/obsess over whether your child has enough toys that are stimulating them enough and helping with development? I feel like I have obsessively worried about this from the beginning and I get SO overwhelmed when looking for age appropriate toys. There's just so much stuff out there but ...
