hi all,
with the sun having come out this week me and DD aged 17 months have been on a couple of picnics with some other mums and toddlers and older children.
At home DD eats in her high chair or occasionally sits on flooor for a snack but at both the picnics she just ran around with the food, grabbed other kids food, walked across the picnic blanket, climbed in all the other buggies, threw food etc etc. She was much worse than the other kids her age
I have decided to avoid picnics til next summer. I got completely frazzled and so did she, partly because she didn't really eat enough. I don't think she understands the concept of being outside and sitting still.
She's no angel but she's not like this normally
any tips?
