I used to bring a small bag with crayons and paper or coloring pages and quiet things my kids liked to do while sitting in service. I also volunteered to do Sunday school and was able to bring my kids in with me and they liked helping pass out papers etc..Let them know what is expected before church so they know this is where we're quiet. Practice at home with your toddler too. this always helps |

I bring paper and pencils or pens, along with some goldfish or cheezits for them to nibble on later in the service during sermon time, and usually this combination helps them stay occupied. |

| Kimberly Matura I brought magnadoodles when my trio was little. Less messy and wasteful than paper. Plus I bribed them with a donut after mass. Tuesday, January 10, 2012 | ||
| Janelle Sauceda We have mini magnadoodles, iPads, iPods, soft books, quiet toys, you name it we have it. I have a 4 yr old boy on the spectrum and very noisy 23 mo old. It takes a lot to make it through that hour. Most days we still end up in the foyer:/ they grow up, so I hear:D Tuesday, January 10, 2012 | ||

| Sonya Dawson Generally we have a board book and these miniature Tonka vehicles he likes. He also likes one of my old cell phones. It helps though that he is on church consistently as his behavior has improved over time as he is exposed to the situation and learns. Still has days when he acts like he`s doing the lesson, but for the most part he does well. Tuesday, January 10, 2012 | ||
