Lord help us...

in Parenting after a Loss

DS has a new skill----climbing. I am so not prepared for that this early.

Any suggestions on what I can give him to practice on? Right now he's determined to climb on the fireplace and dogs if I don't give him an alternative.

I miss the age I could lay him on a blanket under the ceiling fan and he'd be content.

    When DD started climbing, I would crawl behind her and let her go up the stairs. It's probably what started her obsession with the stairs though.<----Possibly bad suggestion.  Are your couch cushions firm? You could lay them on the floor for him to climb.

    Scout- I NEED that slide. In fact, I need a whole playground set. Cool

    That problem with that though is that I'd have to actually vacuum the stairs. Embarrassed

    Is he pulling up to standing? DD loves her Leapfrog Activity Table.  I have two actually-one at MILs.  And FWIW I was able to get it used at a consignment sale for $15 and my mom bought the same one for about the same price also consignment.

    I feel like maybe he's too young for standing?  But the table has legs that come off so he can sit and play w/ it and all over it.
