My 2 year old DS has always been an easygoing kind of child - as a baby I sometimes worried I was neglecting him as he was quite happy to sit in a bouncy chair or under a play gym for hours.

At the moment he is playing quite happily in the garden while I sit inside with my laptop and a cup of coffee. We quite often do this in the afternoons, or potter around inside, but I never really play with him. He likes cars, and dinosaurs or imaginary games involving repeatedly climbing in and out of a tent, and quite frankly I don't.

So AIBU not to play with him? Am I the only one and is everyone else busy crawling around being a tiger?

I'm the same, and I really like this book
