Dude, this is my house on a regular basis. Sacha plays with my pots, mixing bowls, pretends to cook, and I just let it happen. That's what vacuums are for! Mrs. Mustard's last blog post..It’s Business Time

I wasn't going to post until someone else admitted they let their kid play with the toilet brush and plunger, which HAVE been used! LOL! Me, too. Call me gross. He doesn't put it in his mouth or anything. He just goes around scrubbing other stuff in the bathroom with brush. (Does it count that it's one of those anti-microbial ones?) I let William play with dry pasta on the kitchen floor. I give him a big plastic bowl and smaller plastic bowls and spoons and measuring cups and then pour in some elbows or rigatoni. Keeps him occupied for at least half an hour! And as you well know, every minute counts. And I work full time! Beth's last blog post..Belly Shots--28 weeks

i was just thinking about writing a post about this: have you ever read the magazine Wondertime? It’s wonderful! ok. admittedly i don’t have a toddler to entertain, but when I’m home I constantly feel like i’m not being entertaining enough to my 5 month old.
this magazine rejuvenates me. I read it COVER to COVER. it has all kinds of wonderful games, crafts, etc. etc. and ideas to do with your kids. In the March issue, there is even an article i JUST read that was by a mom who talks about her lack of creative inspiring games and how her kids are just fine without them. of course, there’s a website. http://wondertime.go.com/

i’m definitely going to post about it now

Well, you know I've got nothing. I always think I'll do crafts or games or some crap with the wee ones and then realize that I'm just too lazy to do all the prep work. Hello, mother of the year! So we do end up watching more television than I'd like. Or Elliot plays with random stuff from around the house. We've had about a gazillion tea parties and played doctor for hours. andi's last blog post..Two quick updates

Vacuum attatchments should be sold in big shiny boxes and given to kids at Christmas. Yes, they are just that fun to play with.

My kids have lost almost all of mine.

For entertainment I tell them to go look for them while I read magazines!
