But for them they don't see it as work- it's all PLAY!
Dad flips with the remote- a cool toy to touch.
Mom talks to friends with her cell- A chance to be like mom and chat.
Working on the computer- FUN FUN FUN
So let them play with you. Teaching how to use the computer is a great skill. It's another chance to practice using soft hands. If you just can't stand your toddler playing with your stuff- Try it. Look at it as a chance to learn. Everybody has to learn how to be nice to other people's things and treat them with respect. Now those are pretty big orders for a toddler, but it has to start somewhere and it has to start sometime. What better place to learn than with you and what better time than now!?!?!?!
(Cool Bonus parent points if you know where the quote is from!)
So open up a word doc. Show a picture slide show of them selves as a baby and teach them how to "touch soft." It's OK to give a few chances and then put the "toy" up.
All they want to do is walk like you, talk like you, and be JUST LIKE YOU!
