One thing you learn as a parent is that keeping them entertained is somewhat of a full-time job. As they enter the age of two and three, they start becoming a lot more interactive with their surroundings, which means you should place a lot of importance on where you’re bringing them. Here are three places you can take your toddler on the weekend that’ll both enrich them and keep them entertained.
The Park
We’re referring to all parks, but we’re especially focusing on nature reserves or trails. Local parks with jungle gyms are fun, but we’d like the highlight the importance of encouraging your child to connect with nature. In this day and age, it’s more crucial than ever that our upcoming generation understands how beautiful and simple life can be without being attached to digital screens.
A Fun Zone
There are many different fun zones that are catered to toddlers, such as ball pits, jungle gyms, or tunnel structures. Try and find one that’s not too packed, and make sure you keep a close eye on them while they’re there. They’ll have a blast!
The Pool
On a hot day, a fun day at the pool can be a great place to take them. Of course, it goes without saying that you need to be with them at all times. Make sure they’re supported by you in the pool, or a floating device of some sort. If it’s a public pool, perhaps wait until it’s not too packed to go in with your child.
