Entertaining a 14month old Old Style

pigpen

small cookie cutter for bubbles.. I have some utensils with round loops for hanging on hooks they work too


yes she will eat playdough..


beware tin stacking my baby badly bruised her finger dropping a tim on it.

mine playing with crinkly wrapper/crisp packets, bottles of half water half oil with glitter in or a few sequins or buttons and the lid secured, long strips of paper, a metal bin full of bits.. medicine spoons, coasters etc.. bear in mind everything will be explored with drool and teeth!

Ribbons we love, thread some curtain rings, buttons, cotton reels on them. If you have a silky blanket or top mine love those... fluffy things too.. its all about texture and sound.


3rd and Bird is popular in here, peekaboo, clappy handies, dancing to anything so long as it is bouncy and loud!!

and food.. we like food

Hi
I'd try and get out for a walk even if its raining. A change of scenery is good for all and it may help them to drop off for a snooze.

Thank you all. In the end it was all very easy. We sang, danced, had a little tea party with the dollies, played music with the pans/click locks etc, but the biggest hit was two empty plastic milk bottles with handles. She absolutely loved them! Only one had a screw lid and she toddled around clutching it most of the day trying to swap the lid over to the other, trying to take the lid on and off, pretending to drink from it etc. It was sooo funny. I videoed her to show her parents.

Eat your heart out Fisher Price! Thanks all.
