Whether it’s due to bad weather or a quarantine, sometimes you just need an arsenal of at home toddler activities to keep your little one occupied.
As much as we want to keep our toddlers learning, entertained, and engaged, it can be hard to not get stuck doing the same five activities over and over again.
Sometimes our routines get the best of us, leaving us with few ideas on what to do with our toddlers. It’s perfectly okay and even beneficial for toddlers to be bored sometimes.
However, it’s nice to have a wide range of activities to do when you and your toddler are at home. I’ve been feeling like Elijah (2 years old) and I have been stuck in a rut lately with activities.
And of course, as I’m writing this we’re stuck home with the whole quarantine situation going on right now. To help us all out, I’m compiling a list of all kinds of fun at home activities to do with toddlers.
