Welcome to Week 30 of Toddler Talk Thursday! Where Family and Life in Las Vegas, Crazy about my Baybah, and My Life as a Sippy Cup Mom talk all things TODDLER!!

Toddler Talk Thursday was created as a place for moms and dads of toddlers to come together over a weekly topic and share ideas, go-to toys, or products. It is a great way to meet other bloggers of toddlers. Each week the topic will be different; we invite you to link up, share your weekly Toddler Talk!!

NEW TO Toddler Talk Thursday- WE ARE CHANGING HOW WE PICK THE FEATURED BLOG.

Each week the hosts will travel around to each blog to see what topic your suggest for the following week. If we choose your topic – you will be our featured blog. (Hey we need some fresh ideas!! And picking from your cuties is just too hard!)


In order to qualify for this you need to blog about this week’s topic, and follow the hosts.

And the end of your post – suggest a topic for next week.

Comments letting us know you are participating are always great too. If we choose your blog, we will link back to your post the following week.

Our highlighted blog this week is:


This week’s topic is :

How does your toddler try to be a big helper?

Thanks Praises of a Wife and Mommy for a GREAT idea!

 

We loved all of your ideas for topics–THANK YOU!
We will be getting to all of them!

 

How does your toddler help?

Squish LOVES to help mama clean. And usually if you give him the broom or mop, when it is time to be done, he will get very upset.

"Dusting" the window with fake fall foliage.

Auntie Kim solved this for a short period of time.  She has a mini mop that she used as a witches broom for Halloween one year.  Squishy carried that thing EVERYWHERE!!

Moping!
Squish also enjoys helping to put things away.  Although his attention span doesn’t last too long, he will help for a bit.
Another favorite helper task he love is moving the laundry from the washer to the dryer.  He loves closing the laundry doors (front-loaders), and often tries to do it several times while I am moving the wash over.

All of this is wonderful.  I do love my helper.  But he doesn’t understand he can’t do it alone, or do it all day, so we usually have a very mini tantrum after each task.  Although as he is getting older it is less and less so.

Next week’s topic is: Show off your Little Leprechauns! It’s St. Patrick’s Day! (WE will go back to having you suggest topics – but since it was a holiday…)
