What can I do with my two year old all day?
4. Enjoy music
* play instruments
* sit and do action songs together
* dress up and dance to music (great on rainy days!)
* watch music DVDs
* make up songs about you toddler to sing to him/her
* have songs for different parts of the day e.g. a bath time song, a getting dressed song
* make home made instruments (see the internet for lots of ideas)
* have a certain type of music playing during room play each day
e.g. one mum I knew would play classical music during this time
* if you are even a little bit musically talented (not me!) you could record your
playing and singing for a tape for times when one of you is away or for free play time
* have a disc of gentle bedtime music for a relaxing way to end the day.
