Toys for Tots
While some moms' work-at-home rules don't allow kids in the home office, if yours do, make the kids welcome. Have a stash of your children's toys in your office, so they aren't looking to you for entertainment. (And if you usually have a closed office door, maybe keep a few children's toys for emergencies.)
Of course, you'll still need the kids to keep it down, so some quiet children's toys that encourage independent play include:
- Building toys
- Coloring books/art supplies
- Books
- Hand-held games with earphones
- CD players (with earphones) and audiobooks
- Puzzles
