The bubbles work for at least 30 min of fun...

We build with the mega blocks..

I cut up craft paper & kid friendly pictures from magazines, now there are a ton coming in from stores. And allow them to use a brush with glue and have them paste the pieces down.. ALL done in the highchair I cant even imagine lets them move around with the gluebrush Or I cut out tan colored circle to make pizza..then some smaller red paper for pepperoni, green stipes of bell peppers, brwon small shapers for mushrooms, black of olives..etc..they love doing this one.

Watch some TV like brainy babies ABC's or 123's..

We turn on the music and dance for a bit. this is good for just about 5 minutes but its fun to watch them. And once they are musical, I start singing nursery songs and they follow my hand gestrues like the itsy bitsy spider, twinkle twinkle. They seem to love songs that have hand,arm movement involved.

We do our puzzles, read books, and play brush mommy;s hair... THEY LOVE THIS! Kinda painful (for me) but they love it so much I just let them go for it.

Hope that helps
