When Cousins Maggie was visiting a few weekends ago, we played our new favorite game, Don't Eat Pete! It's so much fun for toddlers and a great way to get them to eat, too! I found the game and a download for the board on a cute blog called Sparkle Power I printed it out and laminated it, and we were ready to go!
The game board has 12 squares with a picture in each one. You put a small treat (We used Cheerios.) in each square. One player leaves the room or covers his or her eyes and the others decide which fellow on the board is "Pete." When the person returns, they start eating the Cheerios from the game board. As soon as the player tries to pick "Pete," everyone yells "Don't eat Pete!" That players turn is over. Refill the game board and play again with the next player.
You can keep score by counting how many Cheerios are left, but don't worry with that yet.

Mags (who rarely eats anything) got into the game!
