She's not coordinated (even compared to most her age lol) so I just want to get something that will be as safe and easy as possible f...

Boundaries

I need to set boundaries around time I take to do... basically anything for myself. I find that I can't even take a shower or do grocery shopping without rushing and experiencing guilt for not doing something more entertaining/educational for my 2 year old daughter. I need some kind of touchstone/guiding principle....

Screen time

I’m a screen time mom. I don’t limit my child’s screen time. She can watch as she pleases. She’s 2. She’s hit all her mile stones on time or early, never late. She speaks in sentences.

Weekend outing

I need your help. We took our 13 month old to the aquarium the other day and she loved it. We want to do something fun like that again, we even looked into the Camden aquarium, but everything is just sooooooo expensive. Anyone has any ideas of a fun time for a toddler in or around NJ? (That don’t cost a fortune ) ...

Missing out

Anyone’s babies still not walking or standing unassisted yet? Feel like we are missing out as we can’t go to the park (in same way) and groups now for this age seem to be more standing based! 😭

What do you do in this weather with a 2 year old?!

It’s too cold for the park and walks (for us anyway 😅) and I don’t like soft play? I don’t mind the smaller soft plays for little ones where everyone can see their child at all times and there’s no big slides or bigger kids jumping about the smaller kids 😣. We get fed up in the house but both last only a few mins…
