So it’s breakfast time, and then it’s off to the great outdoors. You must pack a toddler bag (in game terms a SACK) with a series of pre-selected items of various use (in game terms an INVENTORY) such as a spoon, fork, collection of toys, bottles, cheerios, etc. You must take special care to include items that help shield you from the worst of the toddler fits (in game terms a SHIELD) such as a BLANKET. You must also plan the day - where are you going to go? What are you going to see? The worst possible thing you can do is stay in any confined area for longer than it holds interest… What you need is a QUEST. Sometimes quests are single-item oriented (ie “Go get a new light bulb for the front porch”) and sometimes they are multi-faceted (“go to the grocery store and secure everything you need for the week”) and occasionally they are epic (“get the toddler on a plane, and fly to the grandparents house for a vacation”).
