Post9- toddler tips

Tips for doing indoor activities with toddlers:

1. Remember that children’s attention spans typically are one minute per year of age. That’s right…so a one year old may only have an attention span of ONE minute.
2. I find that activities are most successful when distractions are minimized. Put away any toys, turn off the tv, etc and your toddler will be more eager to play!
3. Leave activities out for toddlers to revisit. Since they do have a short attention span, they will likely leave and revisit an activity many times throughout the day, if given the opportunity!
