I need help, readers. Please feel free to comment here, or if you followed this link from my facebook, comment there.

So Freya is 15 months old and it’s the middle of stupid winter. We need fun things to do that don’t cost money, don’t involve me buying her more toys, and can be done inside. So what I am asking for is fun, entertaining, maybe even educational activities for a toddler her age that we can do in our living room. If she was just a weeee bit older we could color, play dress up, something like that, but so far she isn’t terribly interested in her crayons.

She’s very smart and very interested in lots of stuff. I want to stimulate her mind more. I wish I could let her roam around more but we only have one (large) room that is totally babyproofed. The kitchen is off limits and the front room is too, plus there are steps that she can’t manage yet.

I think I’m just blocked right now. Need new ideas. Cabin fever. Should I just let her play with a pile of scarves and bags? She has almost mastered opening and closing zippers. She has lots of kitchen containers and bowls to play with.

Long story short, I don’t want Freya to be bored! Her only job right now is playing, and I want to make sure she’s having fun every day. I’m sure there must be blogs or sites with cool DIY baby activity ideas. Please point me there! Thanks.
