If you have a toddler and baby

Does your toddler suddenly want to play with the baby toys they stopped playing with a while ago? Toys you put away then took out again for the baby and your toddler uses it more.
DS is 3 and likes to go in the exersaucer. My 11 month old doesn't even want to go in anymore and just earlier my toddler was playing with the laugh and learn house he stopped playin with. Lol
Figures
Sometimes I feel like the baby gets ignored. He's perfectly happy being independent and watching his older brother, but I feel like I have to give so much energy to my older son.

Re: If you have a toddler and baby

Yes, my now 16 month old has really never gotten to play with any of her baby toys - starting with the playmat when she was an infant. My 3.5 year old twins commandeer them all.

Yes. DS 1 hangs more in the bumbo now than he did when he was little. Anytime DS 2 goes in his play gym he joins him. He also has claimed all of the baby toys as his own. I'm curious to see what will happen when I put the jumperoo together.

Re: If you have a toddler and baby

Yup! but for me its not bc of a younger sibling is bc of my younger niece. DD is 3 and my neice is 14 months and no matter what toy or activity that is with my 14 month old niece, my 3 year wants it.
