My DS (recently 4) has become atrocious at playing by himself. When he was a bit younger and I was home on maternity leave with DD he was brilliant. I think this is because I was trying to do a lot plus DD was very difficult so he was often left to his own devices and adapted well to it.
We now have a FT nanny and he cannot do something on his own for five seconds. I don't blame her of course but I'm sure it's because she is so brilliant and hands on. I can't exactly ask her to ignore him for the sake of ignoring him.
I'd really appreciate some tips on this, toys that are good, ways to organise the house etc so things are accessible maybe?
