How about some cardboard tubes (loo roll and kitchen roll innards) closed off on one end and stuck together to form a pyramid? I fill it with treats and cat paws them out. You could even get the 1 year old to decorate them...

we have all of these - the cat nip stuffers are a real favourite - but the catnip bags that come with them are a bit feeble, I use a valerian teabag stuffed inside instead and it lasts for ages and doesnt split - you can also put a squirt of pet toothpaste in there and they are good for keeping teeth clean). The treatball is another favourite for obvious reasons with one of mine as is the twinkle ball (which is confiscated periodically when I need to sleep!)

The tennis ball in a bowl is like by both of mine but can be a wee bit noisy - shop around on all of these tho because there are some places a lot cheaper than others

we have the cat it treat maze as well but tbh mine get bored with it

Thanks guys, there are some cool ideas there..........

Although leaving biccies or catnip around is a big no-no as my one yr old will stick anything in his gob, including handfuls of coffee, urhhh.

Cereal or shoe boxes with holes cut out (abit like a shape sorter for kids) and then put some cat treats in for them. Makes them work for the food as well as keeping them entertained. You could also try hiding some of their biscuits around the house - under furniture, behind cushions to appeal to their hunting instincts. Or put some in paper bags and scrunch them up and throw them. They get to play and find food at the same time. Keeps them busy.

Also rotating their toys every 4 or 5 days so they dont lose interest.

If they like catnip then try sprinkling some of that on one of their beds or in a box - make them a kitty crack den!

Cardboard boxes and maybe some big tubes? I'm thinking drain pipe size. My cat will play with a rolled up paper ball for hours
