i'm a stay at residing house mom too and that's soooo not undemanding! i'm exhausted for all time. that's extra good than whilst i became into "working". conserving a sparkling house is already a not undemanding job. My significant different knows that. He sympathizes. permit your husband stay residing house for a pair of days and have him guard the toddler, the laundry, the dishes, all the foodstuff collectively as you bypass out and pamper your self. and once you return residing house, do not furnish to help him (till you're breastfeeding the toddler). in the adventure that your husband refuses, tell him "once you're this form of guy then i could prefer to work out you do this "job" extra valuable than me". If he continues to be a coward, tell him "you're suitable. perhaps you're 2 previous to do my job that's why you may not do it". attempt this and notice if it works :) permit me be attentive to the way it is going. *Hugs*

Answer 5

Here are some things I did with my twins at that age:

*Get out pots and pans and spoons and let them have a band. (Or use plastic containers for a quieter band!)

*Put sudsy water in a dishpan along with some plastic dishes and let them "help" you wash the dishes.

*Bake together (they can pour ingredients into a bowl and stir.)

Answer 6

A good thing to do is get phonics for them. It is something fun and they will learn a lot from it. You can also do a lot of art projects with them. Set a schedule and have certain time for games, arts and crafts, motor skills, etc. They are not too young to learn how to use glue and play dough etc.

Answer 7

Girl, put them on the floor with a blanket and some toys, some chips or cookies and call it a day. Clean up the house while you still pay them attention. Cook dinner, find something good on t.v. and be proud that god blessed you with having babies.

Answer 8

coloring is good reading to them will work as well make sure the book has pictures..my mom used to read to me growing up I really think that is what gave me my love for books.
