Not gonna lie, under 18 months are my least favourite ages lol. However, they are the most in demand age so it seems like I always have at least 1 or 2 of them. ( can only have max of 2 under 2where I am) I definitely still do art with them but sometimes it needs to be modified or one on one. I now try to wean them from morning naps as soon as possible ( especially if it's summer!) but if they need one I limit it to 20-30 minutes. I practice with them on the steps and walking to make life easier. I stick to my normal routine and rules as much as possible so they catch on fairly quickly.
Having an assistant will help! My fiancé works evenings and he will help me take them in and out if I have 2 that can't walk and do the stairs yet. That alone up helps immensely!!
Ya they may not be young for long but I never understood how that pertains to dc because as soon as they are old enough to make life a bit easier it seems like another young one comes along! Lol.
You will be fine though and the crazy periods will pass and eventually you will have them at older ages and hopefully it lasts for at least a year before the next young one comes!
