for my 3 1/2 year old last year whilst babies were sleeping, we usually did something together after I cleaned up lunch dishes, either cooking, out in garden, gardening or play a boardgame, snap etc. Then I had my lunch, when she either played in the other room with smallworld, dollies or read or she sat with me whilst I ate and did cutting, glluing, drawing and just chatted to me. It was lovely actually.
When she was younger she was my first non sleeper at 2. My other toddlers did sleep so they slept and she lay on sofa too with books and just read whilst they napped.
