As my boys got older, they were less intense, went to preschool, and were able to entertain themselves for a little while. Therefore I made another schedule for them that’s a bit more laid back than the Daily Schedule for Toddlers.
This is a small schedule to help plan activities that you and your kids want to do during the school year or the summer. You can quickly print out on cardstock and attach some sticky magnets and keep on your fridge. Each day have your kiddo swap out the schedule.

The following is the schedule I used for my boys when they were young during the summer. Every Tuesday I had a babysitter come from 12 – 4pm so I could get some work done, grocery shop, etc with out them. Actually, I still do that every summer. That’s what keeps me sane. {{wink}}

I’m intrigued… what is a chore chomper?
Thanks,
Amy
A chore chomper is a chore chart for toddlers that’s a monster which eats the chore cards. It’s adorable. I’d upload a copy of it but it’s has a copyright.
I was surprised at how easy it is to get my 5-yr-old’s to use their imaginations when they play. All you have to do is give them the tools and they do the rest. I never knew that boys could be so interested in playing dress up. I buy Halloween costumes when they’re on sale and my boys have spent hours and hours pretending to be policemen, Buzz Lightyear and Woody, Transformers, and Batman and Robin. They call each other Batman and Robin all the time and it totally cracks me up (“my name’s not Christian…it’s Bruce Wayne!”). Their other favorite toys are Lincoln Logs and Tinker Toys. I hope to start them on Lego’s soon, but their baby brother is just a bit too young still!
