Summer Babysitting Activity Pack – ABCs Theme

Welcome to week 1 of Summer Babysitting Activity Packs! This week’s theme is ABCs. I am creating a fun summer activity pack each week, for you to use with your kids or hand over to your babysitter to keep the kids occupied this summer. They are suggested for preschool-ish aged kids (age 3-6).

Finding a reliable babysitter isn’t easy. You can use word of mouth, and also something like Care.com. Care.com lets you request background checks and look at reviews. You can even pay them from the site.

I honestly am creating this list to use for my own kids this summer and wanted to share what I found.

Teach a chore

I don’t know about your kids, but mine can completely cover a room in toys in less than an hour. I let them do whatever they want for a while and then we clean up all at once sometimes we have to do this a few times a day. Sometimes, we just clean up at the end of the day.

Here’s a fun cleaning activity. It will teach them to clean up after themselves and also practice their ABCs.

Tell the kids to put away a toy that starts with the letter A, and then letter B, all the way through the alphabet. If they need to skip a letter just ask them to name something that starts with that letter.

Fun snack

These ABC sugar cookies are so much fun! You can even simplify it by using the pre-made cookie dough from the refrigerated section of the grocery store. Have the kids write the letters out themselves for some fun practice! Check them out here:

Do you have any fun ABC activities to add to the list?

The best products for you and your baby.

Baby monitor

With a baby monitor, you can use your time flexibly, sleep peacefully at night and still know at all times that your baby is doing well.

Nursing pillow

A good breastfeeding pillow has several advantages, because it helps you not only to breastfeed, but also to fall asleep and is also suitable as a nest.

Diaper bags

A diaper bag offers you a lot of storage space, so that you have everything you need for your baby on the go - from the changing pad to the bottle.

Pucksack

A pucksack gives your baby the feeling of security, like in the womb, and thus supports a peaceful and restful sleep.

Bicycle trailer

Bicycle trailers can be used in combination with a baby seat shortly after birth. They are not only safer than child seats but also more comfortable.

Playpen

A playpen can be very practical in everyday life! Which model is suitable for your needs, you can read in my guide.

Baby bed

The first bed accompanies your child for years. Fortunately, there are beds that grow with your child. I have made for you on the search for the best baby beds.

Stroller

A stroller is a worthwhile purchase. But there are the most diverse models on the market. Find out which is the right one.

Radiant heater

Radiant heaters provide your child with the necessary warmth when changing diapers or after bathing.

Extra bed

Side beds are very practical and offer both mother and baby a lot of advantages, because for babies, especially in the first months of life, it is reassuring to be able to sleep next to their parents.
