How to entertain my toddler

Hello, I have a 1.5 year old daughter. She goes to nursery only part time twice a week and I am struggling to find ideas on how to entertain her at home. We go out to soft plays in the morning but afternoond seem to drag. She will build towers and play with toys but will get bored eventually. How do you guys do that without too much tv time.

Have not tried that yet. She still eats everything from the messy play. Looking forward to it though. What products do you normally put in?
