I have the 3 and 5 year old on my own 3 days a week while trying to WFH. Not fun.

Young fella (3) has taken a serious dislike to me too. He told me we could be friends as long as I stayed out of his way and not be saying stuff while he was doing “things”.

About an hour later I caught him trying to climb up to a high press. Went to stop him and he starts screaming “no no no remember our deal”

I was at a work Christmas party one year when the lad beside me described it as ‘a parsimonious affair’… I nodded but hadn’t a clue what he meant… It was an Italian restaurant so thought it was a play on parmesan…

The poor young fella is only copying his father.

Ok dads… She’s at that age now where she loves songs…baby shark a big favourite, especially when daddy does the actions. What other block busting beats do you recommend?

caulifloweredneanderthal · May 13, 2020, 9:47am

Wheels on the Bus a big favourite right now

Although I Am The Resurrection came on the radio this morning and she was bang into that.

There’s loads of kids tunes on YouTube that she was mad into. ‘One Potato’, ‘One Little Finger’ etc

Corksfinedtboy · May 13, 2020, 9:48am

Oh God wheels in the bus

Bandage · May 13, 2020, 9:51am

Stick You Tube on the telly, search for “Dave & Ava” or “ABC Kids TV”, pick a 1-hour playlist that contains Wheels on the Bus, Old McDonald, Row Row Your Boat, Five Little Ducks and so on, and get back to fighting with strangers on the INTERNET.

Round and round the garden never fails as well mate. You’ll go bananas doing it mind you.

Burn, deep purple. I’ll never forget my pair going ballistic to it. The wee lassie had all the moves while her younger brother was randomly running around the kitchen shouting “blue leg blue leg”, and showing everyone his leg, which he had just painted blue.
It doesn’t get any more rock and roll than that.
