Getting Your Kids to Entertain Themselves

February 16, 2012 By Alex 3 Comments

Danielle David Grinnen's kids having a blast by themselves. See below for more details.

 I’m a stay-at-home working mother, which basically means that I work from home with no daycare, resulting in my kiddos needing to entertain themselves when I have to get work done. So what’s the problem? It’s my son–you see, he’s not very good at entertaining himself. When he gets home from school, I put my daughter down for a nap, and then I’m on the computer, while he watches television and continually states that he’s bored. What’s a mom to do? Breezy Mama turned to various sources and mothers for advice and inspiration on how you can get your child to amuse themselves WITHOUT a television or computer.

If you have the room, space with a desk specifically for your child, as well as shelves that they can put supplies on would be a great start. As Pam Guyer of HIPP MOMS says, “The most important factor is to make sure it is child proof and safe–that gives peace of mind, so that they can just go in there and play and you don’t have to worry about the safety of your child.”

Being able to tell your child to go to “their space” while you can get straight to work is ideal. Now, for what to [Read more…] about Getting Your Kids to Entertain Themselves

Road Trip
I love this game for prepping for a vacation or to take along while you travel. Oh…and a little learning will ensue. They say, “Can you rattle off three towns that start with the letter “P”. What about three fast foods that contain the letter “B”. Or, finish the “Tale of the Trip” by filling in the blanks with words beginning with “A”. How’s this: [Read more…] about 5 Fun New Family Board Games

10 Activities for Rainy Days

January 21, 2010 By Alex 15 Comments

Here in Southern California, official headquarters of Breezy Mama, it has rained (almost) nonstop for two days. Now, for those of you who live elsewhere, please do not laugh. For us So Cal people, TWO DAYS of rain is a mighty long time. We’re just not used to it. And the worst thing? It’s supposed to continue for at least three more days. Did I mention it never rains here? As a result, we’ve been forced to batten down the hatches and stay inside and . . . amuse the children. I’m finding that this may not be the easiest thing to do, especially with a certain four-year-old who has an attention span of about ten minutes.
