This video shares 16 at home activities you can do with your toddler. I’ve been working on this video for too long. But, with many people stuck at home, I hustled to finally get it done! I originally started this post with 1-year-olds in mind. That’s how old my little guy is. But, many of these will work for 2 and even 3-year-olds as well.
Tips for Playing with 1-Year-Olds Model the Activity: Very often you’ll need to model an activity for a toddler. We can’t always just put it in front of them an expect they know what to do. Show your child the way to play with it and then offer it back. Parallel Play – Parallel play can often help extend the length of time your little one plays. Parallel play is when you see two kids playing next to each other but not actually with each other. You can mimic that same thing by “playing” to encourage them to continue playing with whatever toy they have. At their level tables and shelves – It’s super helpful to make your space accessible for your little one. Having toy shelves that are right at their level is ideal. It’s also great if you have a toddler-height table for them to use. It’s a little more expensive, but I also really love using a learning tower, which allows kids to stand at counter-height in the kitchen to play and do activities.
