Success can look different to each of us ... but I bet you have some 'idea' of how you see your toddler in the future ... confident, curious, helpful, kind, creative?
How can we help him or her achieve that?
Well it starts with PLAY ... to explore their environment, try new things, and solve problems (through play) they build confidence, social competence, and emotional stability.
Listen to this week's episode to hone your understanding of the best form of PLAY!
OPEN-ENDED PLAY ...
It is play with no direction, no limits, rules, or interference.
It is letting your child use his imagination free from predefined limits or expectations.
No amount of technology can do for the developing child’s brain what a box, a pile of clay, or a tub of wooden blocks can do.
You don’t need expensive toys – nor do you need a lot of toys.
For engaging, self-directed learning to happen in your home, you need toys to encourage open-ended play.
Show them a few ideas ... set the stage ... and then let them run with it.
As you prepare for the holiday season ... keep it simple. Keep it healthy. Keep it fun.
EAT. TALK. PLAY.
