Any tips for 1 year old stuck at home with no garden?

[jessy2018]

With this new announcement that all public places pretty much are closing I feel beyond upset about everything my LO who is nearly 1 will miss out on this summer. She is so active and loves swimming, tumblr tots, play dates and soft play.

I know it sounds selfish and we are in a fortunate position that none of us are high risk but I just can’t think how to entertain her everyday and give her the social interaction she needs at this age.

I’m self employed so pretty much lost my job too :((

Any tips for what to do with a 1 year old other than swings? She’s not walking yet.

Paddling pool with balls in. You can use in the summer later.
One of Those small plastic garden slides. You can use inside. (I did this in flat)
One of those play tents.
Sofa cushions to make a soft play area.

Teeter popper
Moluk bilibo
Bean bags and rings to throw them into
Implay soft play slide
Garden tray to play with water and plastic toys in with a towel down underneath
Sofa cushions down to make an obstacle course
Blanket over the kitchen table to make a tent, torch a bonus
Cardboard box tunnel
Nursery rhymes with actions
Rough and tumble- I pretend to want to eat my dc and she always laughs
Painting the bath with washable paint and paintbrushes
Daytime baths are always a winner
Stepping stones
Bubble machine
Spoon/ spatula and a bowl to hit
Pretend tea party with teddies
Put them in a laundry basket and swing around
Put them on a blanket and pull around

I also set up stuff in different rooms. I put different toys in the bedrooms and we rotated.

This is a great thread. I'm definitely going to do some of these and invest in a few bits and bobs.
I've got a 2.5 year old and 9 month old. Life is a lot easier when I'm out doing things the older one enjoys. The new routine (being in the house the majority of the time) is going to take a bit of getting used to.

if you have instagram check out 7daysofplay they have some really good ideas. I'm planning to make moonsand and pkaydiugh this week, also going to order some water beads and easter crafts

Even the Deputy Medical Officer (title's probably wronf but Jenny Harries) said yesterday that it's still important to get outside and exercise, just that we shouldn't do it in groups. So you can still go for a walk/bikeride/kick a ball in the park.
