Unless I am right there talking to my twins or pushing them in the pram, they get bored and start crying. They have toys, tethers, a play gym, books, etc. but none of it keeps them occupied for long. They're not yet sitting totally by themselves, which I think may be frustrating for them from a play perspective, but then again if I put them in the buggy or their high chairs to sit up, they get squirmy and agitated after just a few minutes. I feel like I'm their prisoner when we're in the house! I like being with them, but sometimes it would be nice if they could entertain themselves for more than 30 seconds.
Any tricks of the trade I'm missing? Are there any magic toys out there that will keep them occupied and happy? Not keen on sticking them in front of the tv and we don't have loads of space in the house.
