Shifting

Baby, it's cold outside! Playing outside is less of an option these days. Hence, no romping children to entertain Eden, the sandbox is covered with leaves, the slides are wet and cold, and the grass is muddy and no longer cushiony to fall onto. So we've resorted to playing inside. Unfortuneatly, Eden's favorite inside game, is "make a mess"-the pull books off shelves type. Finding alternatives has been difficult since everything still goes into her mouth: crayons, bubble wands, and the leaves we track in. Any suggestions for an ACTIVE 10 month old baby?We did find the Earth Science museum sponsored by BYU, Eden really liked that.

I want to know if you find good activities for active little ones. Jacob is almost 11 months and so much more of a destroyer than Michael was...Mic's a bit of a neat freak and Jacob would rather take things apart. Gahhh...

Try the bright, large leggos! Easy to clean up and too big to swallow! Also you can download the Children's Songbook and transfer to CD or play on the computer. Singing and clapping is always fun! Fruit Loop necklaces are messy but edible. A stroller ride through the mall or a play date with another little one can be fun (and exhausting) Love you three!!
