are able to communicate with what they want and how they are feeling towards their likes and dislikes. They enjoy playing with other children but at the same time can be selfish with objects that are in their possession. In addition, they are more inclined to do things by themselves independently, even though it may be a struggle for them.

  • Children at this age enjoy throwing. You can provide a variety of soft balls that they can throw and can even make small, soft balls out of socks or yarn.
  • Children like to stretch their muscles by carrying or moving heavy things. A sealed bottle or box of laundry detergent would be fun for them to move. They enjoy carrying small stools around so they can reach a book off the shelf. They can help bring in small bags of groceries or push the laundry basket to the table for folding.

Decide what is safe for your child to climb on and remind them to climb on those things when they start climbing on other things.
    •  The act of climbing strengthens muscles and improves coordination!
