Busy Toddler

2.8M parents follow her because the activities actually work

Susie Allison built one of the largest toddler parenting accounts on Instagram by doing something deceptively simple: posting activity ideas that actually work, backed by real child development training. At 2.8 million followers, Busy Toddler has become the default morning scroll for parents of toddlers — and the trust it has earned is well-founded. If you follow one parenting account, this is it.

✓ Pros

  • Child development degree makes the activity recommendations trustworthy, not just trendy
  • Posting is relentlessly consistent — daily content means there is always something new to try
  • Content is reachable: no elaborate setups, no specialty materials, no Pinterest-perfect pressure

✕ Cons

  • Activity-focused feed means less general parenting advice for those looking for behavioral guidance
  • High volume posting can make it hard to track back to specific activities in the feed
