I have just started looking after a 2 year old girl. Yesterday I also had a 9 month old baby. I found the 2 year old really hard work. She only played with each toy/activity for no longer that 5 mins each. She didn't want the baby near her/touching her or whatever she was playing with but also wanted my attention the whole time. Any ideas with what to do? I only had her for 2 hours. I'm thinking in the future when I have her for a whole day I will take her to a toddler group. My only worry is in a few weeks I will have an 8 month old and 16 month old at the same time with the 2 year old. Luckily it is only for one day a week. I just felt really bad for not spending much time with the baby. Already I'm having second thoughts.......... Any advice??? Thank you!
