Once my 1 1/2 year old daughter learned to walk, our favorite activity is walking and collecting leaves, walnut shells, sticks, and rocks.

My boys love to go and play at the park. Stroller rides thats real good exercise for mom. Playing ball is their favorite and swimming. That helps them sleep at night since they are so wore out.

I love craft time with my two year old....she loves getting her hands dirty in glue or painting and is always proud to hang up her latest project in our "art gallery" in the hallway. She'll even take visitors over to view her creations.
I bought this great book called "Great Explorations" it's packed with different project ideas for indoors, outdoors, different seasons, it has games to play outdoors, songs to sing and different ways to get your child moving. I especially love the book because it doesn't just provide easy step by step instructions but information on what skills your child can learn or improve upon with each project and ideas on how to vary the projects to make them different each time you do them...it also has age guidelines to help you choose appropriatly for your child and tips for containing the mess that comes along with crafting with your child.

My daughter is three years old, and absolutely loves anything that allows her to be outside. Taking walks, riding in the bike trailer, riding her tricycle, side walk chalk, and going to the park are her top picks. When we have to stay inside, she's quite the girlie girl. It's all about singing, dress up, playing in her play kitchen, and playing with dolls. She's got a HUGE imagination, so she's happy with anything most of the time.

My daughter is getting close to three and she loves doing just about everything and anything I let her do. Her favorite things to do is take walks, sing and dance, play dress up, color, make crafts, help bake or cook, playgrounds, and talking to her baby brother in my belly. She is a major pip and I am glad we are slowly leaving the terrible twos. I think i'd go insane otherwise with a two year old and a newborn haha. But yeah she mostly loves to do anything that makes her feel more independent.
