How am I ever going to get dinner made? |

Activities for little busy hands (shared by my ever brilliant sister Pache) These might get you through the witching hour or at least prepare dinner every once in a while.
- Band-aid baby- Buy dollar store band-aids and set up your own dolly doctor office. Beanie babies and other stuffed animals make for great veterinary play too. Little hands love to peel and stick. It's also great for fine motor skill development.
- Office extravaganza- Post-it, page markers that pop, anything that can be pulled apart over and over again will be intoxicating to your little ones. A couple of bucks on office supplies is worth the break you get from this project.
- Clip it! - All you need are clothes pin and a bucket (or bowl)- let your toddler working on clipping things together. if clothes pins are too hard, there are always chip clips. Buy them in different colors and let your child sort them out by color.
- Golf tee fun!- A block of styrofoam, golf tees and a plastic toy hammer equal hours of fun. This is a safe alternative for your handy toddler and is sure to be a hit!
Just a few ideas to help you get some extra time to get the things done. Hope it helps.
