Children love new activities. Toddlers, in particular, like being given attention and what better way to keep them happy than play interesting games with them? Here is a list of amusing and entertaining activities for your toddler to enjoy with you.
To teach your little one color, you can make each day a color day. So if it is a yellow day, you and your child wears yellow outfits, eat yellow bananas and pasta, point at yellow sun and use yellow table covers and put yellow flowers in the
living room. This will make him remember the colors more effectively. To help him understand shapes you can use cardboard boxes of different shapes and sizes and create train out of them. Empty cereal boxes; take out covers and other such throw away can be used to create the train. Make holes and use string to connect the end of one box with the front of the other.
To make him learn about body parts, just ask him to lie on his back on a large paper. Draw his outline on it and encourage him to color his various body parts on the paper. This chart will help you measure his growth when you repeat the process in the next month.
Another great game for the active days is chasing. Toddlers simply love being run after and so you can give a new twist to this game by turning into his favorite TV characters or animals. Jump from your
platform bed and other furniture pieces to add adventure. You can become a roaring lion while he becomes a rabbit or you can be the big cat Tom while he is the tiny mouse Jerry. Try other options like birds, fish, hen and other. And of course, remember to hug and kiss him when you finally catch him!
If he wants to run around, you can play the shadow game. Here you act as if your shadow is chasing you and you can even make it funny by ordering the shadow to stop. You have to jump on your child's shadow and ask him to jump on yours. If he insists on going outside, you can help develop his curiosity by asking him to pick and collect all the things he likes in the park, garden or beach. You can bring them back and make a scrapbook out of the little items.
To make story time more entertaining, use socks. Put one light colored sock on your hand and another on his. Make a face on both socks and start a conversation. Teach him to use proper words while conversing and you can even make your hand puppet sing a song or two!
If your toddler loves cars, use your bed or
sectional sofas to start a journey. Make pillows or cushions the car seats and the sofa or bed the car. Give him a circular plate to turn into a steering wheel and take him to distant lands! You can show him animals, fishes, people, vehicles and anything else while on the journey.
