(aka, have husband or I pitch while he attempts to bat. When he makes any connection at all with the ball, he throws the bat and runs randomly around the yard.)</p> <p>Indoors - Play with trains or his mini garbage/dump trucks.</p> <p>In the car - Listen to the Magic Tree House on audiobook! (Thanks, @mediagirl:)</p> <p>ETA for indoors: Watch baseball on TV. And say mommy, mommy, mommy over and over again. And get his own water and ice out of the fridge door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-childs-favorite-things-to-do-right-now#post-2550693 Tue, 17 May 2016 16:25:44 +0000 autumnlove 2550693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Drawing and writing letters for LO 1.
