Games to Play

I know as a stay at home it actually becomes a task to decide what kinds of activities to do with my son. You sometimes just can't figure out what you haven't done in the last 3 days. A few things that I've always had problems with is that mine likes to eat the crayons more than actually use them the way they are intended. He doesn't like to play with toys by himself, he much prefers someone playing with him which can be daunting if you have house work to do.

So a few things that I have found that seem to help are his V-tech learning computer, even though he is a bit young to fully understand it's functions, he does love to play on the computer "like Daddy". Another thing that work, although for a short time, is to let him pic out a picture he wants to color. I go to Sprout Online. com and they have ALL the TV characters from PBS and he gets to sit on my lap at the computer and pick out what picture he wants then he gets to color it. As he started to show interest in Stacking things I bought wooden blocks then for his 2nd birthday I bought him Mega Blacks and he now will let me clean for 10-15 min without interrupting.
