For those of you who have children around one and a half years old, how do you spend your days ? I would like to use this as a reference.
If you have a child who has already grown up, I would be happy to know what you did.
Thank you very much.

Even if you didn't swim, you played in the sand at the beach or took them to the Toddler Program at Paki Park.
We also had an annual pass for the ZOO, so we often took walks in the ZOO.
We also went to Toddler Time at Kahala Mall every week. It was nice to make friends with other kids around the same age in the Toddler Program at the park. At home play, we did sticker books and paper crafts together. Lots of picture book reading too. You also let them play in the bathtub with shallow water. We also gave them plastic bags and went with them to pick up plumeria at a neighbor's house.
My children have already started elementary school, but when I see children around 1.5 years old,
I miss my own children when they were small :)

Well, well, well, thank you.
I see that some of the parks have Toddler programs !
and the Kahala Mall ! There is certainly a Zoo.
I will try to find one near my house.

All aboard
Thank you for your enthusiastic post !
It took quite a while to be reflected here, I just read it. Thank you for your concern. But I'm not troubled by it. I just wondered how you all are spending your time. You have had a checkered life, blessed with a very nice young lady .

I started taking my children to preschooler meetings at church and temple before they turned one, not so much for my children's sake, but more for my own relaxation. I think it was more for my own relaxation than for my children's. When they were about one year old, I started attending parent-child classes at IJCC (International Japanese Christian Church) and parent-child classes at Makiki Church. I also purchased an annual pass to the Honolulu Zoo and Children's Discovery Center, which I often visited. We also took them to Family Sunday at the Honolulu Museum of Art. I also enjoyed the playground at the Windward Mall, which was designed for small children, and when they were about one and a half years old, they took gymnastics classes, rhythmic classes, and group baby swimming lessons with friends, with a teacher coming to our house. I took them to the park every evening and kept myself busy, but now I think it would have been better if I had set aside a little more time to just laze around at home with my child. I thought I had started attending preschool, but in the blink of an eye, I was a college student. The time when they spoiled me and followed me around with "mommy, mommy," seemed long at the time, but now when I think back on it, it really was just a moment, and I really love these precious days. Enjoy the time you have with your adorable children.

Thank you, weaning mom !
You have been very active ! My son loved milk so much until recently that he was afraid to go out much if we ran out on the road. Once we were delayed on a flight to an outlying island, and she was so impatient and traumatized when we ran out of milk, both on hand and at the store. In the end, he slept and we were able to get through the situation. The museum is nice It hasn't been open for a while in Corona. We will certainly have much less time together once preschool starts, so I'm looking forward to enjoying the time we have now .
