(Or, how to entertain your little self for a whole day by yourself)
⏰the day before⏰
✏Make a schedule for the day! Wake up at 9, eat breakfast, and then different activities throughout the day! Dont forget lunch and dinner!
🍽Prepare meals!
For breakfast, you can make pancakes ahead and store them in the freezer. If you put them in the toaster in the morning theyll feel fresh!
For lunch, make a packed lunch with a sandwich or pinwheels or anything else you like! Store it in the fridge!
You might want to wait to make dinner until youre going to eat it but if you want you can make burritos and store them in the freezer. Then you can put them in the oven (not while youre little!) To heat them up!
🌄the day of the playdate🌄
🍼Get up, get your coffee or tea in your sippy, and gather the stuffies!
🍳Eat breakfast together! Be careful not to get them dirty trying to feed them.
🖍Start the day’s activities! You could do a small craft project (search “kids crafts” on pinterest), print out coloring pages or worksheets and do them (remember to help your stuffies, especially if the worksheet isnt in their strong subject!). You could go on a scavenger hunt if you have a yard, and look for certain color rocks or certain shaped sticks. You could also try to spot different animals like squirrels, beatles, birds, and caterpillars!
🍱Have lunch! Make sure you refill your sippy or bottle with something healthy like water or juice!
If youre tired, you can take a nap after lunch!🛏 Then you can do more activities, or call the playdate done. Make sure you tell all your stuffies what a good time you had and thank them for playing with you!
This app really helped with my regression! There's thousands out there just like it so don't limit yourself to this one. I found the coloring by numbers really fun
The world is a sad and scary place for my brother right now. He lost his favorite stuffie... and I understand that pain. He has no idea where it is, and he's currently crying his eyes out. He's only 11 and he lost his favorite toy. The one he falls asleep with every night and takes on trips and dresses in costumes. The one he has all sorts of memories with is gone. So the world is sad and scary tonight. I'm sad tonight and he's sad tonight. I hope that we find him
