Fall

With the days getting shorter we tried to enjoy as much time outside as possible this fall. We played at the park, in the alleyway with neighbors, cleaned up the garden and went for walks.

But now that it's dark before 5pm, it's a little tricky to keep Amelia entertained in the evenings. So I've been trying to keep her occupied with crafts and other silly baby-toddler things. Like collecting leaves and gluing them on paper.

That was entertaining for about 5 minutes. So we quickly moved on to crayons, coloring and making cards.

So far we've tried to do something crafty or at least attempt purposeful play each night.

Now that it's December we are trying to do our own mini advent activities each night. It's a little tricky with a 1.5 yr old, but we'll figure it out.
