Keep Ankles Safe
When a baby starts to learn to walk, they are sometimes placed in a walker, or a chair that has wheels on the bottom.
This allows them to carefully wander around their homes, and parents don’t have to worry about them falling over. However, these chairs always manage to hit ankles, and a pool noodle can cushion the blow when placed on the bottom. Just be sure to cut them down to size to fit along the edges.
Start Drawing
Going to the doctor can be a bit of a scary experience. It usually means a vaccine might be involved, or something else a child doesn’t necessarily like.
Keeping crayons at the ready, can help distract a child from what is happening, as they can draw on the paper covering on the examination table. Make sure not to use markers though, as they can bleed through and mark the table.
