  I love my job, it gives me a break from my kids!

I stole these from a post Dust Bunny did:
"Run Through Delight"

Think of this a mini curtain rod & curtain.

You need:

A dowel or some stick.

2 dish towels, pillowcases or whatever.



Wrap them around the dowel, pin in place (like a curtain). Hold above your toddler's head and let him or her run through back & forth.



BOXES

Of course, the old standby...

Box boat with cardboard paddles, box house, box puppet show theatre, box tv (black construction paper in the background, let kids make a show), box kitchen (include fridge), simple dollhouse, rocket. etc.

One I like to play while folding sheets is to make a parachute with the fitted ones and hop under then with the babe. Fort making is good fun and letting them get into the pots and pans.

  dishing the dirt, cleaning the chaos

water play in the sink... ramps for ball-rolling ...block towers...lids and jars...drop poker chips in a slot in the top of a box...push & pull toys (you can even tie a string to household objects and watch him pull)...hmmm, I'll think of more!
