    I first found one of your videos when I was pregnant. I am a young mom and I had no friends with kids or family near by. Watching your videos was like having a kind friend that could show me how to be a good mom. Now I have a clever year 2 year old and am ready to do it all over again 😊 Thank you, you helped me alot.

    Your kiddo is so cute! I’m about to enter a nanny job and the kid I’ll be nannying is 2 years old. I’ll do these activities with him and keep you guys posted :) Thank you Mrs Emily!

    Thank you so much, Emily. My toddler is almost 2 now and she is of great energy. Keeping her engaged in some activities is quite a tough job! But this video is very helpful. And not only this one, I have been following you since I became a mother and God bless you, all your hacks and advices made my motherhood quite easy and enjoyable. Love for your beautiful family.

    Thank you for the advice one tip from a fellow mom/animal enthusiast...you shouldn't fees ducks bread. It causes them to become malnourished because they will become used to getting fed, rely only on it and bread lacks what they need to prosper.

    • @linelledsall6692
      @linelledsall6692 6 років тому +6

      This is true. It is best to look up what seeds, etc. are.good for the ducks and what they like...it is much better for them!

    Thanks for the amazing ideas!!!! I do allow my toddler listen to kids rhymes on iPad only for a little bit of time everyday from UA-cam and that has made him even smarter than me!!!😊 At 1year and 5months he started reading Abc's, 1 to 15 and A for Apple with out making mistakes.... but the little issue is that he has to learn Nederlands as well.... I thought it was going to be difficult for him but not really he can speak already both languages and he will be 2years by January 2020....

I also bought few things do do arts and crafts for her birthday next month. Might search for some of the other toys you recommended and will put this vid in my favourites ❤️😊Bless you

    I have a friend who let her son watch UA-cam for whole day everyday...
    The son just turn 2 years old, woke up morning around 9-10AM.
    Watch UA-cam until around 12-2PM.
    Have afternoon nap around 1-3 hours...
    Woke up & watch UA-cam again until 10-11PM night, then go sleep..
    Every freaking day same schedule.
    they went out together for a bit every now & then for walk...
    The son still cannot speak any word except papapapa... and even that is very rare...
    I know this because I live in the same apartment unit as them, renting 1 room.
    And every freaking day have to listen an almost nonstop children songs from the loud UA-cam the mom turned on...
    I tried to send subtle message to the mom hinting that it’s bad to always have her toddler son watch UA-cam nonstop like that...
    But, the mom totally ignored that message. I did confront her directly once saying she need to try to limit the UA-cam and play with the child or let the child play independently...
    but what she answered me was; “if I don’t turn on the UA-cam, he will be fussy, then I won’t be able to do anything...”
    Well... so I don’t know what to say anymore...

      Ashley Cate maybe try to be more relaxed around entertaining her, it may be that she needs a nap if she’s getting upset or hungry. I find having a play routine helps with my fidgety bottomed toddler as he likes knowing what’s going to happen next..
