Running out of ideas to entertain my toddler and preschooler. Help! One eats everything and the other is in full three-nager mode.

We've raced cars around, made paper airplanes, the 3 yr old made me draw everything she could think of. I like these ideas. Some won't work with the 18 month old but you've given me ideas for her too. Thank you!

18 months is challenging... It will get messy, but if you have painting colours, put some on a paper plate and then let her "paint" with different things: toy car, balls, pasta...

On youtube there are videos of dancing fruit... For a 10 minutes break they are great, especially if you can make them dance as well.
