As a mother of two lively kiddos, I’ve learned that each child brings their own unique brand of chaos. My youngest, in particular, is fully embracing her toddler years, and I must admit, I’ve become a bit more relaxed with my supervision compared to my first child. Nevertheless, there are definitely times when a watchful adult is crucial to prevent little mishaps. Here’s a playful look at those moments:
- Whenever there’s a stick of butter within reach.
- When a pen mysteriously appears without any paper, and creativity strikes.
- While exploring the world of dogs, especially during their phase of curiosity about, well, their behinds.
- While indulging in chocolate treats.
- When they have food they dislike in front of them and are plotting to hide it.
- While getting their hands dirty in the garden—sometimes they think it’s fun to squish flowers into the mud.
- After an unfortunate accident—right after you step out for just a second to grab wipes and you’ve reminded them not to touch.
- When they’re painting, of course! Who wouldn’t keep a close eye on that?
- While trying to pour a box of crackers into something far smaller than the box itself.
- When they decide to “do laundry” while you’re busy in the shower, only to find one sock and a drenched comic book.
- While watching their favorite show on your laptop—yogurt in hand and all.
- When they choose their outfits for the day; sometimes their fashion sense is… interesting!
- While practicing the fine art of blowing their nose.
- When they have a toothpick in hand.
- While running down a hill in flip-flops—because that’s a recipe for disaster.
- During sticker playtime.
- Right after they learn the fascinating skill of spitting.
- The moment they discover the joys of peeing outdoors.
- When they realize they’re finally tall enough to reach the refrigerator’s water dispenser.
- When boredom strikes and they suddenly remember where you hide the syrup.
