Can anyone recommend me some toddler activities which will tire out 3 energetic toddlers or keep them occupied for a while? We've got my niece and nephew coming as dsis is having a routine op, so I'm going to have a week of 3dcs from 2.2 - 3.10 while she is recovering. I'm only used to having 1, and mine is the youngest. She is very excited about it atm but I'm worried this might not last. I'm trying to think up loads of activities to keep them busy and tired and avoid World War III. Thanks.

I do the below with my 2.8 year old which tire him out or engage him for a while:

Paddling pool in the garden and watering the flowers

Train ride

Bike ride in the local woods/round the block

Activity centre / toddler groups / sure start centre

Painting the shed using water and paintbrushes

Bus ride

Seaside

I second the garden watering - an empty washing-up liquid bottle full of water keeps DD occupied for a while. Sandpit? Paint brushes and water 'paint'? Good luck!
