Toddler to play themselves

[mostlyconfused]

Hi

I'm 40 + 3 with Ds2 and already have a DD who is 3. We are very close and usually play a lot together during the day. I'm a bit worried about how I'm going to cope when the new baby arrives. I'm trying to plan ahead and think of things/games I can have in for DD to play with herself. Obviously when the baby is sleeping I will give her all my attention. The housework will just have to wait for a while!

She likes doing arty stuff so I've already cut up lots of card into different shapes, got in lots of glue and gems, pom poms etc. I've avoided glitter as I won't have time to tidy up the mess!

I can't think of anything else!

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Lego

Sticlebricks

Playdough

Make up a sandbox (Tupperware container with sand in it, to draw in, like a home made etcha sketch)

Puzzles

Blocks

Stickers

Those are all things my 2 can play on their own with.

Playdough, moonsand, what about those cards with holes that you thread lace through to make a picture (not sure what they are called) sticker books, jigsaws.
