This may feel premature or even a bit daft….but….after this week, I’m starting to build the prospect of the very possible reality of a toddler at home due to nursery closures and my working from home pattern increasing.

So, I thought I would put a list together of ideas of how to entertain should the need arise.

For toddler:

• Plenty of books
• Colouring books/paper/card
• Paints/pens/wax crayons for arts and crafts
• PlayDoh and bits
• Make a treasure map
• Hide and seek
• Lego
• Board games
• Den building
• Bug hunting
• Chalk painting
• Bark rubbings
• Wooden railway
• Paper aeroplanes
• Baking
• Soda baking
• Make some jelly
• Hot chocolate and marshmallows
• Jigsaws
• Make your own jigsaw
• Plant some seeds
• Bike riding around the garden!
• Football or rugby games
• The inevitable TV and NowTV
• Be in a band!
• Create a mini disco
• Teddy bears picnic
• Paper plate family
• Finger puppet show
• Dress up
• Make postcards to send to family & friends

So that’s one day done…… 🤦🏼‍♀️

For me:

• Wine
• Chocolate
• Sanity
