Water

Liam has a fascination with water.  He takes any chance he can to turn it on, dump it out, pour it from one thing to another and anything else he can think to do with it.  We were going stir crazy a few weeks ago and he just didn’t want to do anything.  I decided to take a chance and give him a bunch of bowls, cups, and spoons and fill a couple with water and just let him have at it.  He had a blast and it was only minimally messy (I put a towel under it all to keep it from spilling all over my wood floor.  It will be even better when it warms up and he can do it outside.  (he’s already asking when he can go swim in his pool outside)  So, if you are needing something for your toddler to do try this out.  You might be surprised how long it keeps them entertained. 

Look at the glee on his face.
