    This was pretty helpful, thanks. I'm babysitting for the first time for a non family member and I'm looking after two 1 year olds while I'm used to my niece and nephew who are 6 and 4! Obviously there's a few things on your list that I wouldn't do at someone else's house but it was still a great reminder for where the kids will be at in development and what they'll enjoy!

  • @ayanabenjamin376
    @ayanabenjamin376 6 років тому +8

    Lots of people commenting seems upset about Emily not giving Caleb's exact age. Interestingly, in videos where moms do this, people get annoyed that they are giving age in months and not years.
    To people concerned about the developmental stage, as you must know, kids are different...some are even born with one or two teeth! And the McClure boy is a good example of an infant walking before he's one.
    Caleb's 2nd, 3rd and 4th birthday videos are uploaded in october. Maybe that's his birth month. This video was uploaded in Jan. So maybe he is 15 months old in this.

    My baby refuse to play with his normal toys. He enjoys digging my trashbin, opening my kitchen and room drawer, playing with my pots and baking tray and tools, open his cabinet and throw out his clothes, playing with my husband computer, cables, and his stuffs, playing water anywhere he can find especially if I forgot to close my toilet door he will play the water in the toilet bowl!, he enjoys playing at the playground too, grabbing leaves, sands, stones whatever he can find and put into his mouth to taste, oh he enjoy fighting over tv remote, plug off tv cables or any cables that attached on the wall. Sometimes I was surprised why my tv suddenly shut off. I guess it's good that my baby is so active? For now I have to lock my drawers using my husband belts. So he won't be able to dig the trashbin. I hope my baby is normal and new mom experiencing this too??
