Be a baby– my 3 year old is always asking me to ‘be a baby’ and to be honest as long as he’s bringing me teddies and reading me stories, I have no objections! Duvet den– a particular favourite of mine because it seems to entertain our boys for so long with minimal effort from me! Lie in bed and use your knees to hold the duvet up to make a ‘cave’. You can be dragons, badgers, explorers. If you fancy doing a little ab work then you can mix it up a little! And as I’m pretty much THE official expert on playing lying down I was surprised I’d not already written this one! The reality is, that in these moments I have already gravitated to some of these “lay down games”. This made it all the more enjoyable to read through the activities in this book and see how many I had already tried. 11 out of 25 was my score! This was very exciting. It meant there were lots of new opportunities to entertain my child whilst lying down! The idea behind the game is to lie on the floor and have your child bury you in pillows, cushions, blankets, soft toys or anything of this nature, so you are hidden underneath. It is both a building game, a hiding game and could even be a scaring game if your child would enjoy it!Lay Down Daddy Games was conceived in 2013 when Neptune Blue’s CEO Jim Manduca had two young boys running around at home. At the time, Jim was working as the Film and 3D animation Director at Fuel Industries and the position required many long days and nights. Upon coming home, Jim would head straight to the living room floor and call the kids over. The activities soon came to be called “Lay Down Daddy Games.” It was a fun name to say, and for Jim, it meant Daddy was just another play structure that you layout on the floor. For his boys, it was a just, “Lay Down Daddy!” Find me something– I loved playing this with my Granny…now I realize it was probably all a ploy for her to get a few minutes peace! I am happy to accept that there are times in which I can be moderately lazy. My wife may argue the term “moderately”. However, I couldn’t help but be intrigued as to what some of these lay down games were! So, if you’re feeling tired, ill, fed-up or just need a few minutes to get it together, I hope this list will help… Parcel delivery– my kids love pretending to be Santa delivering toys. ‘Pretend’ to be asleep while they wrap up some toys in a shawl and then “ooh” and “ah” a little as you unwrap. Repeat!

We have even got to the point now where she is in the bath and will ignore all the bath toys we have bought for her.
