As parents, we often feel like we need to be “on” all the time. Entertaining, teaching, or engaging with our little ones every second of the day. But here’s the thing: giving your baby the chance to play independently is one of the best gifts you can give them (and yourself!).

Well we all know winter is definitely starting to make an appearance with the temperature drop and more rainy days inside, and being parents ourselves we have quickly learnt too many inside days = cabin fever. You try to avoid cabin fever by beginning to search for ways to keep your babies or toddlers entertained indoors. The good news? Cold weather doesn’t mean less play - it’s just a different and new season of sensory exploration.
