Ten Ways To Keep A Toddler Entertained In The Kitchen by Teresa Kolvek
Anyone who has tried to cook a meal while watching a toddler knows how difficult a chore this can be. I know that if I don’t keep my little girl busy and entertained, she’s either off in another room scaling the furniture, clinging to my legs and screaming for attention, or grabbing for hot pots and kitchen shears. So, here are some ways I’ve found to keep her safe and happy while I get dinner ready.

When Does A Baby Become A Toddler?
Transitioning from baby to toddler begins around the age of one. I like to think of full on toddler-dom being anywhere from 18 months old to 35 months old. But according to the experts, babies become toddlers when they hit 12 months or 1 year of age.
My son is currently 32 months old and I still consider him a toddler. I won’t consider him a preschooler until he hits age 3 or a little older.
The toddler stage can be somewhat difficult for the parents & the toddler because this is a time of learning independence, defiance, frustration, emotions, and an “I’m the center of the universe” attitude for the toddler. These are all normal developments and emotions.
