My closest book is “The 2,000 Best Games and Activities” because sometimes I do get off the computer and play with my children. And then sometimes I get bored. Er, that’s another post. Anyway, on page 123 the fifth, sixth and seventh sentences say:

” You can create a surprise for your toddler by putting safe things out that can be handled in places where they would not ordinarily be found (Ed. note – I did not pick this book for its great writing).  Interesting options include a deck of cards, a wallet, jewelery, brightly colored adult socks, a music box, a cup with cereal. Extension: Add safe items to drawers and toy boxes and help your toddler discover them.”

Does anyone else think this “game” is lame and obvious?  And that giving jewelery to a toddler is not generally a good idea?

I am going to tag people, but those people (and anyone else reading this) have an option. You can do the traditional literary meme OR you can share an idea for amusing Lovebug (preferably an idea that is much better than the one in my book). You can also leave your suggestions in the comments section, because Lovebug is getting pretty bored while Ironflower is at school and it is still effing freezing outside.

I officially tag (because if you read this blog you should consider yourself unofficially tagged):
