As the weather gets warmer I would like to take my son outside, he's 2 years old. I realize I'm going to have to buy some things haha. He already has a sandbox but we do not have sand for it yet. What does your toddler enjoy doing/playing with outside?
Answer
Make sure you get a bunch of fun sand toys to go with the sand box. It keeps my 4 yr old and her friends entertained for hours. Other toys that are popular with all the little ones:
Sidewalk chalk
Bubbles
Pool
Waterslide
Scooter
electric ATV
Tricycle
Bicycle
Any type of sport...basketball, soccer ball, Tball, etc.
Flying kites
Jumprope
Hopscotch
Tent and tunnel sets
Playground equipment (slides, playhouse, etc)
See Saw
Swingset and tire swing
Trampoline
We have them all, and they regularly get used. Needless to say we spend the summer, spring, and fall mostly outdoors

What do you do when your toddler is whining and crying for no reason all day?
That one
Just wondering how other parents deal with it. My 21 month old daughter is very really annoying and whining all day. I can't seem to find anything wrong with her. She's fed, changed, has lots of toys and I've been playing with her on and off all day. I'm taking her to the pool to swim this evening but at this moment, she's is really bugging me. How do you deal with it when your toddler is acting like that?
Answer
I find with my 23 month old daughter this happens all the time too. I have recently started ignoring the behavior that I don't like (thee fits, whinning and crying), and encouraging the behavior that I do like. When I see her playing alone, she asks for something nicely, or whatever it is that is not crying I make sure to notice it and tell her how much I appreciate her doing the right thing. I have noticed that in the last few days her whinning and crying have drastically gone down. She is much happier and is always trying to get the positive attention since I am eithdrawing the negative attention. Good luck!
