Baby activities

Hi all, so my lil one is 7 months now and he has so much energy! He constantly wants to be doing stuff but gets bored so easily. I’ll put him on the floor and he’s happy for like 10/15 minutes then I’ll join him and that’s another 15 mins or so then use the jumperoo, go outside for a walk, have cuddles, read, watch tv, watch me clean. He only lasts about 15 mins with every activity and then he gets super whiny and fussy. I’m getting so frustrated through the day as I just don’t know what to do with him. What do you guys do with your babies? How do you keep them entertained?

Literally same for me, hopefully we get some answers

Always snacks 😂

I just put him in the carrier on my back and that usually settles him

I try and split each out into 3 20 minute sessions and when ghr witching out strikes I change room every 20 mins xx

Have you tried any classes x

I'm not sure if it's the same everywhere but here local libraries and children's centres run free classes. We also do swimming. I like to do a class or at least go out every day or the day feels too long. My daughter also loves ducks so a walk with ducks, or the park (mainly for her sister but little one loves the swings and being held down the slide). Soft play is often free or cheap for under 1's so a quick visit feels ok. When at home changing rooms (helps if she's in the mood to let me tidy) or going in the garden, treasure baskets, sensory bottles, songs, books, toys.

Thanks for some ideas! We do try to go out as much as but sometimes I struggle to leave the house and those days are so hard

Girl, same 🤣. I was thinking baby classes but that’s not long enough he’ll come home and do the same
