Do you take your kids out everyday?

Almost, but you need a day off! there are some parents who stay indoors almost every day.( because it is hard work with toddlers/buggies/changing/feeding/etc!)

you sound like you have the balance right, other parents know that you need a day to kick back and slob around! Mine is today too, hubby has just taken the dogs out, the kids are on the wii ( they are slightly older than yours!) and I am on here, catching up with q&a and e-mails....

don't feel guilty enjoy your day of rest.

chance would be a fine thing, I have a dog needs walking and a toddler. I work fulltime weeks, so no such luck, without my Mother and cleaner I do know how I would cope. Im sure it won't affect their development, they will just be happy to be with you. Where does all this pressure come from to be perfect and mother earth these days? If my son just gets a good education and some moral values of me Im happy.

i'm not even the form to buzzkill yet that isn't humorous in any respect to me. I want it became as i like having a solid snigger yet heavily, i've got seen it like 20 circumstances or maybe the 1st time I observed it it wasn't humorous. it fairly is only lazy and uncreative. once you are going to be lazy, you are able to desire to a minimum of be formidable to make it humorous. Like bypass out in public and ask this question on digicam to strangers then placed it on Youtube you're able to get some humorous reactions.

Not at all. We don't take our kids out everyday, because sometimes it is freezing and wet. They go to creche twice a week and shopping on wednesday. They don't have to watch kid's tv all day, you can play with them, interact with them.

Experts fear that children's tele can be damaging because it doesn't promote interaction, but that is an entirely different debate.

I strongly disagree with the below answer, to make a child sleep 16 hours is ridiculous, the recommended amount is 12 hours, but each child is different.

Well I'm not a mom yet, but I won't worry if my son doesn't play outside everday. Once a week won't hurt them. Plus, they get to play inside. That's fun too. I loved playing in and out as a kid.

Absolutely not!!!!! You need to recharge after a busy week too and after doing so much with them through the week, you deserve it.

Don't put yourself down, you sound like a No.1 Mum!

Good Luck x

I try to take my 16 month old son out daily otherwise he's bored and gets in a really bad mood, but i think it's fine for your kids they have company

No It is not unhealthy.I take my kids out only 5days a week and i let them watch tv and play indoors just make it fun for them

lordy i hope not or i'm in trouble. Wednesdays are my PJ day. my 16 month old and i are lazy all day. as long as they arn't watchin tv all day and do something constructive, i can't imagine it being an issue. sit on the floor and color with them, make sure they have enough toys to keep them occupied, sometimes its good to not entertain them, so they learn to do this on their own. maybe keep special toys for that day so they arn;t bored with them when you want them to play alone. :)

Not at all! You deserve a day of rest and it sounds like you are doing everything you possibly can for them. they are well loved. it is a good chance for them to catch up on some rest too. life can be so fast paced so it is good to teach them to relax a little bit and enjoy the simple things in life.
