Let the Toddler Fun Begin

The Toddler Busy Book is a one-stop entertainment resource for busy moms. I love the simple, easy projects, games and crafts. I also like the fact that many of the crafts utilize items that you already have at home. This book is also a great gift for childcare providers, grandparents and teachers.

great book for tired moms

When you work 40+ hours a week, it is hard to think of fun, creative things for your child to do and many times you end up putting them in front of the television. Toddler's Busy Book to the rescue!!! The ideas are organized in a wonderful way and easy for even a brain-drained mom to implement.

Creative and Practical

500 good ideas makes for great sharing with babysitter, grandparents, Sunday school teachers, and parents too. I really loved how the book was separated into activities, such as travel, indoor, outdoor, quiet time, and holidays. There were plenty of options for easy fun food items, including fruits and vegetables, simple crafts, and free activities using things you already have around the house. The format was extremely easy to read and makes a great gift for anyone taking care of a toddler.
