DD is two and a half. She doesn't really enjoy doing the usual toddler stuff - swimming, groups, singing groups, park etc. she just asks to come home. If we do go to the park, she ignores the play equipment and prefers to potter about looking at leaves and watching the dogs instead.
She is happiest at home pootling about with me, reading stories, playing, baking, 'helping' etc. I used to do so many fun things with her brother, which she doesn't seem to enjoy, I feel bad. And I get quite bored at home, if I'm honest.
She has glue ear, which makes me wonder if she struggles at noisy places. She is on the list for grommets. Or maybe she is just a potterer. Her dad is too.
Anyone else in the same boat? Any suggestions to broaden her horizons? I don't want to force her into stuff she doesn't like, but she starts preschool in September and I'm worried it'll be a huge shock to her.
