I need some encouragement!! I just accepted another 1 year old, I have an infant that will turn 1 in April!! Neither of them are walking, just starting!! I have a large group of 3 year olds and then I will have 3 school agers for the summer!! What do you do with the babies when you are outside, especially when they are not quite walking, but they can climb and get around pretty good! I have been fine with one 1 year old on top of the other children, but I guess I honestly am a little nervous now having two of them! Do they constantly go in different directions, how do the rest of you keep up with two, how do you handle this and keep everything from completely getting chaotic!! Any advice is appreciated!!

I have 2 that are not 2 yet. I take out my enclosed play area for them to play in.
At 1 yr old here they are still taking a morning nap, so I am not taking them out. They are sleeping when the older ones are playing outside. The way my home is set up, I can sit on either side of the patio door and be within 15 feet of all of them. -
The new child just turned 1 March 31 and the other will be 1 April 22, so both young!! I have a fenced in yard and a huge swingset boxed in with sand and full of toys, but they put so much in their mouths at that age, so I don't even think I want them in the sandbox unless I can completely sit with them! I will however utilize the swing!! Even in your play yard don't they put grass in their mouths and don't they see and want to be by the other kids!! What toys do you have for them outside?? I have had the one child for quite some time and it just seems he wants to be right by the other kids so now I am nervous having two of them and trying to keep them out of the swing set area!! I thought about the play yard thing, but I think they would just cry and want out of there to explore do you find this at all?Comment

I don't have a problem with it, because that is how I started when I first took them out. There is no way I am going to chase a uner 2 yr old around the yard trying to keep them off the climber, out of the path of the older ones kicking and throwing balls, etc. Keeps them safe, lets them play outside, and all are happy.
