Fraternals

My twins usually play well together. But lately I'm noticing that Ds is getting a little frustrated. He doesnt like the feel of the grass on his feet just yet, if he did he could 'explore' a bit outside. I've tried making little 'forts' this only works for a few minutes...
He doesnt like being in the stroller for long periods this goes for both. Now that they're more mobile sitting still in a stroller is out of the question. You can imagine our 'outings'...most people just look at me with pity!

What boy things do you give your sons to do?
What has held their attention?

Thanks!

what if you put shoes on him? or at least cover his feet w/ socks...then you could explore a little. water tables are a big hit in the summer. mine are a little older than yours...but my ds LOVES to push things....loves, loves, loves to push things. we have little push cars, firetrucks, etc. he likes to push my dd's baby stroller too.

bubbles are always good too! give them a sand pail and go around the yard and 'collect' things in it.

what about walking them around in a wagon instead of the stroller?

good luck!

 

Thank you! Yes, my son also loves to push things!

I'm waiting for a less humid day that we can enjoy the sprinklers...as it is you are just outside for a couple of minutes & you are drenched with sweat!

So indoor activities are what we're focusing on now..

 

my babies both love balls--i have 2 beach balls, and they looove the big excercise balls at gym class. also a couple of regular playground balls. they throw them, chase them, hug them, kick them.....
