From the self-proclaimed Michael Jordan of Babysitting comes a brilliant guide to keeping the kids in your life happy, entertained, full, asleep, or awake. Filled with tips, hacks, laughs, and a little creative chaos, get ready to make time with kids a little easier and a lot more fun.
In Do As I Play, Chelsea Anderson (aka the worlds' best babysitter) shares her most practical childcare advice and innovative (some would say chaotic good) solutions to everyday challenges, ensuring that caregivers can navigate the ups and downs of kid time with confidence and joy. Inside you’ll find beautiful illustrations alongside tips for managing many of the trickiest moments, like:
The key to getting your kid to take a bath? Get ‘em dirty! Take them outside and give them 30 seconds to get as dirty as they can—making the bath “worth it.” Does your kid hate bedtime? Don’t worry, it’s not bedtime. It’s just time to get yourself ready for the PJs Fashion Show! Can a simple bottle of air freshener help your kid get out of a meltdown? It can, if you tell them it’s Magic Meltdown Spray. Potty time? Yes, this book has tips for that.
Organized by situations like bedtime, hygiene, independent playtime, mealtime, travel, tantrums, and even tanrums while traveling, Do As I Play has dozens of ways to help you handle any situation with confidence. The secret ingredient behind Chelsea’s games and tips is a truly child-centric worldview, where she teaches us not just how to convince and cajole our kids, but how to get ourselves to imagine and communicate with their childlike wonder.
Whether you're a new parent or a seasoned caregiver, this book is your go-to resource for making the most out of helping kids learn and grow...and maybe you’ll learn and grow a little yourself, too.
