2nd Birthday Gift

I’m planning my son’s second birthday (😭) and I’m trying to decide what big gift I should get him. He’s absolutely loving climbing on everything, and I want something he’ll use for at least a year or two. And then his sister (3 months old rn) will use when she gets bigger. I’m torn between the nugget couch, an…

Chores

Are having our 4 year olds do little chores yet for rewards? I've been trying to have my 4 year old (and 2 year old) help tidy up our living room every night because it looks like a cyclone hit it every day and it drives me crazy when I would do it myself just for them to instantly mess it up again. But the problem...

Parent and child bay

Ok I'm wondering if we can park in a parent and child bay if we're pregnant. Sometimes I'm struggling to walk too much as I get palpitations so it feels so much more convenient to park there (but feel afraid as I'm sure people need it more than me)

Mine is not holding her head so well ( only few attempts) but we do tummy time, chatty, and some singing, as sometimes she gets distracted by tv.

Going cold turkey - quitting screen time

Please be nice even if you don’t agree. Anyone done this? I never meant for it to get this bad but the last year has dealt us a series of curveballs and we had to rely on distractions like kids’ shows to help us through. We are at the peak of it now with me being 39 weeks pregnant tomorrow with no energy to do much ...

Playing independently

Anyone got any tips to help a 2.5year old play independently? She plays okay on her own when I'm busy doing stuff, but I've been sick recently and cannot get a lie down without her pestering me.
