Play 1yr-2yr

 

For toddlers aged 1 to 2 years, learning through music, play, and activities involves more active exploration and interaction. Here are some ideas:

Music

1. Sing-Along Songs: Encourage your toddler to sing along with simple, repetitive songs like "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" or "Old MacDonald Had a Farm."

2. Musical Instruments: Provide toy instruments like drums, tambourines, and maracas to explore rhythm and sound.

3. Music and Movement: Play music and encourage your child to dance, clap, and move to the beat.

Play

1. Pretend Play: Use simple props like toy food, dolls, cars, action figures or stuffed animals to engage in imaginative play.

2. Building Blocks: Provide large, safe blocks for stacking and building to develop motor skills and creativity.

3. Outdoor Play: Spend time outside with activities like chasing bubbles, playing with a ball, or exploring a playground.

Activities

1. Reading Together:  age-appropriate books with colorful pictures, simple stories, and interactive elements like flaps or textures.

2. Art and Craft: Introduce crayons, finger paints, and playdough for creative expression and fine motor development.

3. Simple Puzzles: Offer puzzles with large pieces and simple images to improve problem-solving skills and hand-eye coordination.

These activities help toddlers develop language, motor skills, social skills, and cognitive abilities through fun and engaging experiences.
