need things to do with ms. peanut

she is going to be 3 and when sis goes to hospital to have new kid, i'm in charge of peanut.  I need fun and educational things to do with her. Thanks!
sometimes all you really need in life is a pink wig.

Re: need things to do with ms. peanut

  • Where are you guys going to be?
  • I'm assuming your sis is due after August..... The park is always a good way to burn energy. Are there any farms in their area to take her to see animals? The library? Any type of Gymboree or my gym places?

  • We'll be in NJ and sis is due in the next week or so! we are going to work on having Peanut go to sleep with me, gma is still in town to help during the day and mom and i will alternate days off.

    I need things gma can do with her to keep her busy in house or back yard.  yesterday gma spent 2 hours pushing her around in a box (using a mop) and the two of them pretending peanut was driving.

  • Woops my mistake. Coloring - pick up some books at the dollar store. Stickers. You can even try to cook/bake with her. A loves helping me crack eggs, stir, etc

    I had bookmarked this site a while back....tons of ideas!  

    Maybe she could help with cooking/baking something, art projects, building a fort out of old boxes and blankets....

  • Easy crafts?  Maybe cookie making.  My niece used to love to make cookies at that age. Her job was to place them of the cookie sheet, but itwas kind of gross b/c she stick them in her mouth first sometimes.  You know what, scratch that idea. Can you take her to a movie or see if the local library has anything going on?  Maybe you can help her make a present for the new baby

  • get a  plastic tablecloth - it's super cheap and easy to clean up after crafts - ie - fold everything up in it and toss :)

     playdoh and finger paints rock, and can be indoors or out.

     puzzles from the dollar store

     sidwalk chalk

    let her play dress up in your clothes and shoes and accessories 

     

     

     

     

     

  • Not too far from you in Jersey is the NJ children's museum in Paramus- that's perfect for her age. Also Va Saun Park in Paramus- has playground, carousel, train to ride and little zoo.
