Take the past three days.
Hot weather, so Every few hours or so I set up the water table, sand box, painting, down time with DVD, drawing, baking cakes, play dough and so on.
I have a 3.5yo, 2yo, and 19 wk. the elder two just somedays don't seem satisfied. With anything. They'll either wt bored or fight, winge, instead of playing with the water fountain, they climb in it then moan, they then tip all the sand out the box and not play with the sand in the box! I know it's kid behaviour but...
2yo gets so tired but hasn't napped the past three days when she usually has 1.5-2hrs. I'm forever saying not to shout when baby I sleeping. Then they both end up tired and agitated just for over tiredness.
They've also been waking at 5:30-6am. So this doesn't help.
I just feel like anything i do isn't enough. I hate shouting but feel like it's all I'm doing. I shouldn't have to take them out in this heat when they have a perfect garden that some aren't fortunate to have.
Also. They don't ask for things, they whine for them. Drink food toy
