Activity suggestions for single dad and 3 yr old daughter?
I need some help finding things to do with my daughter that are fun for her. Holiday ideas? Learning activities? Games to play?
I think she likes watching TV too much, which I think she gets from being at her mother's house. She puts cartoons on for her all the time... I would like to keep her mind more active than just watching TV... but she ALWAYS wants to be watchin a movie. What can i do to get her interested in more physical activities or mentally challenging activities?
I have too have 3yr daughter, who is in shared care. It really doesn't matter what you do; You could spend heaps of money or none, as long as what you do is together!
My princess always wants a particular DVD on in the morning, so I make that her TV time. Then we do things together.
Play with her, don't just expect her to play.
I make mud pies/people with my daughter. I dance & sing (badly) with her. I have even done forward rolls (& I am almost 40yrs old) with her. We watch a movie together. & when it's tea time, she now turns off the TV, sets the table & we 'chat' while eating. (I do have the radio on in the background).
Keep it simple, sometimes the best fun you can have together, is just been together.
It will take time to re-accustom her to new/different ways of doing things, but it will be well worth it. Just make sure that what ever you do, you are having fun.....
Oh & tell her constantly that she is amazing..... 
And don't be afraid to look like a fool in front of her.... 3yr olds think you are wonderful & funny....
