Oh, that’s right Amy! I’m afraid Lane would brush her teeth if I gave her an old toothbrush, but I bet she would absolutely love a paint brush with some soapy water. I’ll have to check out that book.

My kids are entertained pretty easily too. Any type of water play seems to keep them amused. I am using that Busy Book for Preschoolers and they have lots of great ideas in it with stuff you already have around the house. One idea was to give them toothbrushes and soapy water and have them wash stuff My kids love to wash stuff so that can keep them busy for a long time!!

Thanks, Dana.

Blessed, those sound like fun ideas! Using a sheet is making me think of making tents, and forts, and secret hideaways. You must have been a great sister.

have a picnic,

get an old white sheet and some paint and make a special family table cloth,

for that matter – good old fashioned finger painting is always a riot… and I’m pretty sure you can find recipes for making finger paint yourself.

Twister, books and board games…

OK, just a few ideas – my little one is only 10 months old but I was the big sister and I remember doing fun things around the house.
