Toddle Along Tuesday - Potty Book and Measuring Cups

Little B has been obsessed with books for probably about the last six months.  I LOVE that he loves books so much.  At every diaper change, he insists on reading the toddler bible he got as a baptism gift.  I'm not overly religious, but I won't question anything that will keep him still for a couple minutes while I change him.  More recently, Little B has been announcing each time he makes a number two by saying "poo poo."  So I decided to buy a potty seat and potty book just for shits and giggles.  I'm not expecting to potty train him at 18 months, but it couldn't hurt to have it on hand right?  Well, now we have Little B's new obsession.  The minute he comes home from daycare this is what he does....


He sits on his potty (with his pants on of course) and reads his potty book.  He also likes to carry the potty seat into the living room and sit on it to watch Thomas.


The other day I was making dinner and Little B was being a beast.  Big B was still at work, so I needed to think of something quick to entertain Little B or I was going to have to hold him and try to make dinner with one hand (never fun).  This is what I came up with......

 
 
Measuring cups filled with water.  Little B LOVED it!  And now, he loves playing with the measuring cups.  He actually loves the tablespoon and teaspoon measuring cups the most and since I hardly use those, they are now mixed in amongst all of his toys.
 
 
 
 
 
And finally, I can't leave you without a little humor.  We recently went apple picking.  This is Little B whenever someone says "apple"

  3. The measuring cups are a great idea! I wish I had thought of that when my daughter was younger. She loves kitchen equipment. We find old bottles and tupperware mixed amongst her toys all the time.
