BABY BOY!
Do you think its ok to give your toddler son a pram,doll or doll house ect...along with others of course? i know many mothers who have...but my nephews grandmother seems to think its wrong and that he'll turn out gay ir sumthin!!! in my opinion if he turnt out gay it wouldnt have anything to do with the fact of giving him that when he was younger!!!
Answer
It's fine. I have three boys and my youngest who is 3 started playing with this baby doll and carrying it around the house ever since he found out I was pregnant with a baby girl. We also have one of my old doll houses in their playroom and he uses it as a "secret hide out" for his action figures. My husband finds it a little weird, but it's not the end of the world nor is it going to make someone gay. If that were true, there wouldn't be that many straight guys today. You'd be surprised at the number of men who played with dolls, dress up clothing, barbies, cribs etc. They grow out of it just likes girls eventually grow out of the stage themselves.

I have 2 18m old little boys...they just eat crayons and have absolutely no use for them...they love to paint, but they get bored after a while....what are some fun art things i can do with them at this age?
Thanks!
Answer
Start an alphabet collage with your toddler. Go through old magazines and have them cut out letters from the titles of articles. These will generally be much larger and will be easier for your toddler to cut out. Glue the same letter on a sheet of paper, and then go back through the magazine looking for pictures of items starting with that letter. For instance, A - apple, alligator, adding machine, etc. You'll end up with 26 pages, one for each letter, as well as a front cover and back cover. Your toddler will begin to learn their letters and the sounds the letters make.
Paint rocks
Making Tracks: Lay down newspaper on the table or get your art table ready for a paint project. Find one or more old or little-used toy cars or trucks with ridges on the wheels. On a piece of scrap paper, put down a few small dollops of paint in different colors. Then give your toddler a big piece of construction paper for the âroad.â Have him âdriveâ the car through one color of paint, then âdriveâ the car across his page, making colored tracks. Repeat with a different color or another vehicle with different track marks.
Vegetable and fruit printing. Cut a variety of fruit and vegetables in half. Put a little paint in a few plates and show your toddler how to print them on paper.
Mosaic-Rip up a variety of colored paper and have them glue the pieces together to make a picture.
