MP, we try to limit to half day things because he doesn't have a nap and tends to lose it a bit by dinner time if he has had an entire day. Usually I have activities that we do in the morning and then have the afternoon at home. In the weekend we try to do something for a couple of hours like a bushwalk but we often end up staying at home the whole day too. At home he usually entertains himself, driving trucks, building huts/nests we just call out the occasional comment or countdown so he can blast off etc.

W is off to kindy in Sept when he turns 3. In NZ most kids start around their third birthday and there are 20 govt funded free hours of early childhood education for every kid. We have been going for visits for the past few months and he likes it, but it may be a different story when I leave him there lol

Jazah is the right person to ask about Learning Ladder lol. I don't know if they have that here, but I have been showing W the Learning Eggs website (have just got the free trial) and he is really enjoying it (read: constant nagging to play).
