outdoor play time
« on: May 20, 2009, 18:51:19 pm »
I am wondering if anyone has suggestions for how to entertain my almost 10 month old outdoors when I also have a 3 year old running around.  My lo can crawl, but I don't really want him crawling all through the yard, plus I don't think he will.  And it's certainly no fun for him to be carried around all the time.  How can I keep both entertained and not be moving my lo from place to place?  Any thoughts?

Hi!
My lo is only 7.5 months, but I can tell you what I do with him :)
I sometimes bring his exersaucer out onto the deck and let him play in that. I've also brought a blanket outside and some toys so he can play in the yard. I'll push him on the swing set for a bit too.
HTH :)

I have the exersaucer outside too, but he is getting too big for it now and as for the blanket, he crawls right off now.  He does love the swing though, that's for sure.  I'm sure once I figure out a really good system, he'll start walking and then it won't be an issue.   ;)
