Toddler Tricks

A Dad looking to amuse his toddlers with fun games at home, particularly in those hours before bedtime 😀. Aiming to tweet a #AToddlerGameADay. Share yours!

@cattlegrid Enough people have obeyed enough of the rules to reduce cases and hospitalisations massively. I get you’re upset and have had a tough time. But we all have a narrow frame of reference. Meet someone who is covid and talk about it with them...

[Toddler Tricks @TricksToddler]

@cattlegrid I would say so. And most people have, otherwise cases wouldn’t have come down so much.

[Toddler Tricks @TricksToddler]

@cattlegrid Am pleased for you. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

[Toddler Tricks @TricksToddler]

@cattlegrid They do save lives. You just haven’t had enough support from the government. And I have missed a pay cheque. Has anyone close to you got ill with covid? Because I’ve seen it up close....

[Toddler Tricks @TricksToddler]

@cattlegrid These are two separate points. Lockdowns do achieve the goal of getting infection rates and deaths down. What is also true is that government hasn’t supported businesses enough during the lockdown. As I’m sure you’d agree.

[Toddler Tricks @TricksToddler]

@cattlegrid I don’t know what that means

Favourite #toddler argument: When she was crying, I asked “you want the moon on a stick don’t you?”. She continued, screaming, “I want the moon on a stick”
