I have also created a list of Supplies that I feel you should always have on hand to keep Young Kids Busy. While I have been stuck at home recently with Thumper I have realized there are some really important supplies to have on hand to keep her busy all day. A great way to store all these toddler materials is in a few plastic drawers!

Having these materials have helped me to stay sane, keep Thumper busy and make it to nap time everyday! I didn’t have all of these materials however through the amazing wizards of online ordering anything I needed I could order online and have them arrive the next day.
