I recall getting an email from a very harried mom with a three-year-old. I laugh about it still because I can relate!
“YIKES!! My three-year-old wants me to help him with everything!! I need some activities and games for small children!”
Not long after, I got an email from a mom who was homeschooling. She loved working with her eight-year-old, but she had two littles who made it difficult to give her older son the attention she wanted to. She needed some diversions for those little ones. She planned for all of them to be in the same room, but she needed her littles to be able to play happily without her help for short periods.
Today I will share a HUGE list of activities that will keep your small children occupied for short periods leaving you free to work with an older child, do some chores, work from home, or do your reading and study.
These activities come from many mothers so they are tried and true!
