When your child wants to accept a new toy from you, they’ll drop an object that’s already in their hand.

The activity for today is an example of how you can start a habit at an early level that will come in handy as a familiar routine to use at a later level.

Today’s activity: Offer an item to your child while you hold your other hand out to catch the item they are going to drop. It’s like you're trading objects.
