What activities do/did you do with your 13 month old???

With this lockdown on, we are staying indoors apart from our walk.

I have ordered some crayons and paint (a new activity for her) she has her toys and books that she loves to play with, I will sort a bag of clothes out for her to pull out and then back in, bowl of water with bubbles with bits on, tray with bits on.

I’m starting to get bored myself with these and I just worried she is too, we are lucky we have a garden so we go out and she will play with the grass and bits.

It’s hard isn’t it? My LG just wants to do stuff all the time.

What about playdoh. We’ve just bought tons of arts and craft bits, she has duplo and just lots of other bits and bobs x

Sandpit table is going down well here and blocks in the garden

I’ve ordered a big water play table

Walk in the buggy each day

She also likes running about in the garden and going on a little trike

Kicking - well trying to kick a ball outside

We’ve got some inflatable hoopla

Inside - wooden and metal musical instrument set

Trying to draw with crayons or pencils

Simple puzzles. The ones you slot the shapes into. Shape Sorters. Corn flour and water in a tray can add dye to it. Cooked spaghetti/pasta (if you can get any) cereals to play in - put out spoons, bowls for putting them into. There’s all sorts but I’m stuck for more ideas atm

I’ve done the bowls, spoons, utensils, she likes that for a little while then gets bored 🙄 she loves the shaper sorter she has, she finds new games with them all the time. Just stuck for more ideas.

At this age they are pretty good at recreating games so don’t worry too much. You’re like me over thinking it. I set up activities for my 20 month old. She does her own thing and doesn’t give a monkeys about my colour matching activity or my craft one.

Not what you're looking for?
