Good friends of mine would like a reprieve so they can have their anniversary dinner. I’ve been a camp counsellor and was pretty good at it but those kids were all 6 years old, this one is 13 months old. Adorable kid but I figure maybe some folks here might have good ideas/thoughts/suggestions/crass jokes?

    13m is dangerous. theyre just getting mobile, and thats when watching them gets a bit tougher… i bet this one will be wobbly on 2, but lightning on its knees. watch for it.

    this particular age was fun because they are easily amused, easily startled, easily confused and if theyre in the right mood, they love all of it.

    infants/toddles generally get upset for very few reasons so a good short list to run through is ‘change diaper -> food -> tired -> bored’ constantly if they get fussy.

    id prolly plan a bunch of diff toy sessions, a quick trip to the park after which theyll nap like hell and by the time they get up and likely eat again its time to go.
