Toddler Activity Ideas

[ticklemepls]

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP! I've recently become the teacher for the senior toddlers at a local daycare here. These kids are old 2's getting ready to go on 3 (obviously)... Problem is- this room they have me in is NOT equipped for two year olds... it's more for like 5 or 6. They have very few toys and to take them outside to play is too much of an ordeal (they have to go through the big kid play ground to get to theirs... bad planning on their part). I have a few crafts which I've found to do with them, but I also know a lot of people here have kids... Any suggestions on games or activities I can do to help pass time in the day with them... I can only march around to 'the ants go marching 1 by 1 hoorah hoorah' so many times before going crazy 🙂 Thanks!

Go on Fetlife and find a lady called -gracie-. She's my bestie and an amazing nursery nurse, she can give you all kinds of genius advice!

Hey I'm a preschool teacher for 1-2s. I know it's a bit younger but always willing to see what I can do to help a fellow teacher. 🙂

I heard "The Hunger Games" is pretty popular. Maybe you should set up a toddler version.

my kids are actually 1.5-3 ish!!! Problem is their attention span is like next to nothing so to do a sit-down activity with them is almost impossible.

Hi.
I have a couple or so websites you can look at for ideas if nothing else.
www.softschools.com / www.abcya.com / www.theschoolbell.com or www.schoolbell.com
not sure the actual addy on the last one.
Best of luck.
