Product Information

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! 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!” 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! 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!

I will note for the record, that I thoroughly enjoy playing games with my daughter. I also spend a lot of time playing games with her. But I am sure I am not alone in saying that sometimes it is hard to match the enthusiasm or commitment that it takes when entertaining a young child. Lay Down Daddy Games: 25 easy to do activities with the kids when you just don't feel like getting up.online Last Christmas, my wife bought me a book titled, “Lay Down Daddy Games” by Jim Manduca. Upon opening the present, I immediately burst out laughing. The description of the book was, “25 easy to do activities with the kids when you just don’t feel like getting up”. However, this book highlights that actually there are so many opportunities for parents to meet these different developmental needs, all through very simple ways and means. Lots of parents cannot afford to buy the latest toys or items and are made to feel guilty for not being able to do so. I think this is both unnecessary and wrong. In my experience, when my daughter has been given a choice of playing with a toy or playing with me, I win 9 times out of 10. Therefore, don’t feel guilty if you don’t have all the latest toys, the best toy they have is you!Memories– get your child to describe a memory to you (they may need photo prompts). Try and guess what they are remembering. Fetch– throw a teddy for your child to go get and return to you. Repeat for as long as you can get away with.
