| 6. Teach your toddler to march
to the beat of "one-two-three-four!" while the two (or more) of you play
your instruments.
Your child will never want this marching band
game to end!
7. Make a sandbox out of a large
plastic container for your child to play in.
If you put the container outside, covering it
will keep the cats from mis-using your new toy.
8. Build towers together with
blocks.
Your child will learn about spatial relationships,
balance, etc.
9. When using Play-Doh with your
child, show them how to make little snowmen, snakes, etc,. since it is difficult
for their little fingers to mold clay at this developmental stage.
10. Set up finger painting in an
empty bathtub with your child wearing only a diaper.
This can make finger painting a much less stressful
activity for a parent.
