We play ‘I say…’ while waiting all the time. It can be simple for a 2 year old or more difficult for an older child.

For the baby – snacks and and car garbage as toys. For the teenager – the ipod. For the kid – the baby, telling jokes, or a pen and paper.

I care for my Grandsons until their parents’ get out of work during the week. i always know what they are studying at school. when we go to the mall or anywhere I have them watch for things they might be learning about. especially math in the grocery stores. Also, i read Ann Babenco’s idea and that is a good idea for the little one. Thanks
