Toddlers can be tough. Your child is now mobile and talking but still in need of constant attention and entertainment. I’ve rounded up my must-have items every mom of a toddler needs. These genius products will make your life easier. From safety products to making mealtimes a lot less messy, these recommendations are from a mom of two toddlers!
My stepdad makes the most addicting Chex mix. Any time our family goes home for a holiday or somewhere together on vacation we insist he make it. Unfortunately, because of social distancing, we won’t be able to see him for a number of weeks (months?) so I am going to have to make this recipe myself in order to get my fix.
I’ll admit that my reading choices for the month of April involve some serious topics. This month’s book picks cover WWII, a plane crash, and child abuse/neglect. I promise next month to include more light-hearted recommendations but these are really good books! If you don’t have the mindset to read them right now maybe put them on your “to-read” list. Instead, select a happier book from my favorite book reviews from last year.
Our daily routines have certainly changed these past few weeks because of social distancing and seem to continue to change with each passing day. Starting tomorrow our Governor has issued a “Stay At Home” order to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. This will result in even more parents staying at home with their children.
AHHHHHH!! You are going to be home with your children for the unforeseeable future because of the COVID-19 virus. What can you do with your children all day if all the places you would normally take your kids (library storytime, Children’s Museum, zoo, open gyms, etc) are closed? Below I have a number of ways to entertain and occupy your children while responsibly practicing social distancing. If you have even more ideas please let me know in the comment section below!
