Okay mom naptime is over and now they’re ready for the fun to begin. But as we all know, finding an activity to keep your toddler entertained can be quite the magic trick. What if you had the luxury of retiring your magic cape and wand this year? Well lucky for you, here are a few tips and hacks to keep your toddler satisfied without breaking your bank.
Story Time
Think the library is just for bookworms… well think again! The Henry County Library System offers a wide array of activities such as the “Story and A Craft Program”, the “Kids’ at Works Program” which introduces your little ones to various elements of art, and even monthly themed activities.
Toddler Time
If they can walk, why not let them jump and play every day? Sky Zone of McDonough offers specific activities during a special time allotted just for your little ones known as “Toddler Time.” This exclusive activity gives your energetic toddlers a way to express themselves all while enjoying the weightlessness that comes along with jumping, flipping, and bouncing without boundaries! Just imagine no more broken vases!
All Aboard
Hop on the Summer Movie Express with your little ones for $1 movies all summer long at Regal Cinemas in McDonough. Join in for a day of laughter and ease by occupying their mind with some of the latest kid-friendly films such as Despicable Me 2, Dr. Seuss’s The Lorax, and many more.
Shaking Up the Scene
If the jump and play movie day wasn’t enough to keep your toddler occupied, switch up the scene with a trip to Panola Mountain State Park. With over 25 miles of trails and over 1,600 acres of land including 2 fishing ponds, your ordinary backyard game of tag has been upgraded. Welcome to the big league.
