Parenting Tips for Your 21-22 Month Old Toddler
This newsletter talks a lot about play and toys. We do this because parents and children enjoy play so much. Playing times are special. They help you and your child to share love.
Play is not just a way to have fun. It is also one of the best ways to help children learn. When they play, toddlers learn how to use their bodies. They learn about the way things look, feel, stack, fall, and fit together.
Playing games helps them to figure things out and later helps them to share and cooperate. All this will help your child to become the happy person you want him to be. Set things up so your child can play. Keep a drawer of safe things for your child to play with in rooms you use a lot so he can play and be near you.
Keep a box of tub toys in the bathroom for bath-time play. Change the things you let your toddler play with from time to time. The best toys can be things you already have around the house like plastic containers, wooden spoons, pans, empty cardboard cartons, pillows, and old magazines.
