    I'm a Nana and my Grandson has just turned 1.
    I'm going to stay for a few days with my family and forgotten a lot of what i used to do with my little ones that was inexpensive lol. I actually have some decorting tape here and never thought to use that as an fun way to play and learn. Lots of great ideas.
    Thank you

    I watched this video about a month ago and today i needed some activities, and remembered some of these ideas, quickly put them together and thought i need to watch this video again and save it on a playlist. Love the diy nature of the things, coz we tend so easily to just buy the activities, but i want to foster creativity in my little one and believe that showing her we can make things is a good way to model creativity

    Love to see mamas doing things with their babies!! My kids never did the rice thing but they LOVED the sandbox, which is a similar experience. And they spent hours with playdough. They really love sensory things.

    My kids are all grown up, and I still found this REALLY interesting. I like to keep little toys/activities in my purse/car, for when I know that I might run into a hectic mom with a child needing distraction, like at the doctors office, or a restaurant. I am looking forward to doing smaller versions of your ideas. And someday, I WILL have grandkids!(hopefully 😊) Thanks for sharing this with us.

    @When.Amen.Loves.A.Woman. 6 місяців тому +5

    I’m convinced we need a whole new set of activities for boys. All these worked with my girls. I have zero luck getting my 2 year old to sit. He wants to move and get into everything that I haven’t set out for him. He’s incredibly smart and speaks like a 4 year old child so it’s not developmental. Girls are so much more interested in quiet activities. At least in my experience. His new thing is sitting on his sisters face and laughing non stop.

    • @flow8eraleutica
      @flow8eraleutica 5 місяців тому +1

      I think its bc you let him behave this way. If you expect the same thing from him as your daughters there would be no issues. Kids feel the boundaries give him a baby doll to care for

    • @When.Amen.Loves.A.Woman.
      @When.Amen.Loves.A.Woman. 4 місяці тому +1

      @@flow8eraleuticawhen it comes to the sitting on his sisters face (who is 13 y.o by the way) she absolutely allows him to do that, and it’s in all good fun. She adores her brother and loves play wrestling with him. Still, he knows limits and to always checks in that sis sis wants to play before they start. This is where his development always impresses me. He knows boundaries even at that capacity. Just like teaching a child to ask before they throw a ball for catch.
      As for the quiet activities, It’s not a matter of allowing him to have that nervous energy, it comes natural. Trying to control it makes for a negative experience. However, since I’ve written this comment, I have actually discovered where I can implement these quiet activities, that is typically after he’s gone outside or even play wrestles. There’s also times where I’ve caught him in a lower energy level and asked him to sit with me. He loves bingo dot markers, shaving cream painting, things like that. We even recently bought a Melissa and Doug wooden car that he painted and is so proud of making! Anyways, I only say all of this because the key is not to make an active boy follow your orders to sit quietly. It’s about learning that there’s a time and a place for quiet activities. It’s hard sometimes to navigate because I have limited time but we do just fine now. I’m convinced God sent me this little guy to teach and challenge me in ways my daughters couldn’t. Still, it’s ruff sometimes.

    • @ewilson1006
      @ewilson1006 9 місяців тому

      It looks like wall painting tape which usually doesn't damage surfaces. Blue Scotch brand can be found at home improvement stores like home depot, ACE hardware or big box /supply stores like walmart, amazon. Sticky notes with shapes or colors drawn on them can work too for a reaching, sorting, or matching game :)
