This is a difficult transition for a 3 year old without their mother being away. Here are a few things you can do to help her have a good time.
1). Create activity bags. Coloring books, puzzles, reading books, etc. A packet with a theme that would entertain her for a bit while Shannan feeds the baby.
2). A small gift to celebrate her becoming a big sister. Polly Pocket, Books, new fall clothes (3T)
3). Snack packs. Shannan isn't keen on too much sugar, so low sugar or no sugar items preferred. This helps out tremendously. She can look forward to a fun snack everyday and Shannan doesn't have to think about what to offer.
4). Play Dates. If you know Darby or your child is in class with her at church she would love to come play. Let me know by commenting which day and time works for you and I'll coordinate it with Shannan.
