Your 1-Year-Old Toddler: Week 10 Menu for Fun and Learning
Hey there, fellow parenting adventurer! If you’re feeling a bit stuck in the daily routine with your little one, don’t worry—you’re not alone. At this age, toddlers are all about active play, and there are countless ways to spark their imagination and development. A quick online search can reveal a treasure trove of new games and activities to try out!
Consider arranging playdates with other moms you enjoy. While toddlers often engage in “parallel play”—playing alongside each other without much interaction—it’s a great opportunity for social growth. Plus, you’ll appreciate the chance to chat with another adult! Just keep in mind that sharing can be a tough concept for your toddler to grasp, so if a toy dispute arises, gently redirect them to a different activity or toy.
Embrace your silly side! Play a game of chase, toss a ball for them to fetch, or crank up some upbeat music for an impromptu dance party. Toddlers adore simple things like sock puppets (just a plain sock over your hand works wonders!), blocks, and anything that makes noise. But remember, your little one’s favorite plaything is YOU! Making funny faces, mimicking each other’s movements, or playing classic games like Pat-A-Cake will always be a hit.
The bathtub can be a fantastic place to keep your toddler entertained. With bubbles, bath paint, or some waterproof toys, they can have loads of fun while staying contained (just never leave them unattended!).
Pro Tip:
Designate a special cupboard or drawer in the kitchen just for your toddler. Fill it with safe, interesting items they can explore. Switching things up every so often keeps their curiosity alive!
