activities for a 11mth old and 16mth old

[~Grasshopper~]

hi,

im at a loss really, 11mth old mindee eats, bites and chews everything even my sofa's so playdough ect is hard work as is playing in the garden as he is starting to wobbley walk and falls over and eats things. stones/bark/soil/deads bee's ect so im a nervous wreck watching 2 of them outside.

im trying to go to a few groups each week and i take them to the park after the school run but i wanted some new things to do with them really.

Any ideas???

How about a basket of things they can chew?

My little ones love their treasure basket, old board books, a basket full of baby toys which I can wash after they've been chewed, musical instruments etc

If they have a dummy give them that while doing painting or playdough (even its usually only used for naps), I've found it to help in the past!

How about mark making with pasta, custard, choc pudding etc, then they can eat it!
