crafts and fun
I'm always looking in toddler and preschool activity books for ideas to keep Ryan busy. Each day during Kate's morning nap, we do an activity together. It's a lot of fun! It's nice to spend that time one on one with Ryan.
The other day we had fun with shaving cream. I just pulled out a sheet of foil and then sprayed it with shaving cream and let Ryan go wild. It's a great way to draw and then just erase. We're working on drawing shapes and letters, so this is a perfect way.
We painted with pudding a few days ago. I made some chocolate pudding and we pulled out some paper and finger painted. Ryan also used a paint brush. It was great because it was a fun activity and a snack all in one. Next time I think we'll use multiple kinds for different colors.
We played basketball with rolled up socks and a trash basket. It was hard for Ryan at first, but little by little we moved the basket back and he got the hang of it.

Ooo, good ideas.
I was just yesterday trying to think of something I could use to practice letters with Ben. We used to use cornmeal, but I'm out. Shaving cream is a great idea, though. Ben would have a ball!
Looks like fun!!! Anything messy has to be super fun! ;) That's awesome you take advantage of that time together.
