I found this article at www.utahbabyguide.com and I thought I would share it with you all. I thought there were some good ideas.

20 things to do with your baby that cost less than $2

1. Take her to the library for story time or singing time.
2. Treat her to a photo shoot in your living room
3. For boys: gel your baby’s hair to look like a Mohawk
For girls: paint her toenails bright red
4. Make his hand print into a greeting card and send it to the grandparents
5. Take your baby on a stroller ride using a new route on your walk
6. Let her finger paint with pudding –it washes out of clothes
7. Make a special mix soundtrack and dance to it together
8. Blow up a bag of balloons and throw them around together (make sure
she doesn’t eat any popped balloons- they are a major choking hazard)
9. Get a pet goldfish. The bright color of the fish will be mesmerizing to the child.
10. Make a tent in the living room using blankets and couch cushions
11. Get online and play baby games –try Googling “baby games”
12. let your baby “talk” on the phone to a relative that lives far away
13. Blow bubbles in the bath tub
14. Make your own play dough
15. Let her “help” you “cook” (Jell-o works well)
16. Play “roll the ball” back and forth
17. Paint or put stickers on rocks
18. Play in front of a mirror
19. record her voice and play it back for her.
20. Make sock puppets
