Activities for 1 year old Baby


From the age of 12 months to 2 years old, the child's language, social, fine motor, and gross motor skills continue to develop.
Although it is an exciting period in a child's growth and development, parents may experience anxiety and confusion at home at this time.

Parents may wonder things like Should I offer my kid a book, pencil, and crayons? What games should I allow my kid play? Parents may ask, Is this activity appropriate for my one-year-old? Here are some suggested activities that your little ones may loved.

 

Role Playing
Playing house is a great way to develop your child's imagination and creativity, whether it be by creating cardboard box house, taking care of dolls, or pretending to go grocery shopping and pretend of having a pet.

             

                            

 

Create Music 

There is a good reason why little ones enjoy music. Kids can tell when a song is upbeat and energetic or really calming. In song. They dance. Music promotes relaxation and sleep in kids of all ages. Additionally, it can support their language and social, and emotional growth. 

Therefore, turn on some music. Find creative ways to include song and dance in their daily lives and make music.  Decide whether this covers dancing at bath time or creating a music for dinner.

      

 

Play with puppets.

Playing with puppets, whether they be finger, hand, or sock puppets, will inspire creativity and support your child's social and emotional growth.

Go outside, walk and run. 

Though there is much to be said about imaginative play and role playing, the rewards of simple play, such as running, jumping, and dancing, cannot be overlooked. so let your child go outside. Walk, run, play tag, jump, spin about, especially in the morning sun.

       

 

A ball game
There are so many games to play with ball. A child can practice grasping, holding, passing and throwing. Play tossing the balls into a bucket or a pit to improve your child's motor skills and muscle strength.

Drawing,coloring and scribbling

Young children enjoy drawing and scribbling.  Parents can happily encourage their child's creativity even when they wish their artwork wasn't so visible. Why? Because coloring enhances motor flexibility, encourages self-expression, and helps the child  focus. 
Any set of non-toxic, age-appropriate crayons or colored pencils, as well as a coloring book, can be provided by parents.

A coloring book will be nicer as parents sit with their  youngster. Grab a crayon or colored pencil and get to coloring. Parents can lead their youngster in following along by having them observe. A child's fine motor abilities will be developed when they hold crayons. 

    

Water games
There is no need for an explanation. Nothing is nicer for your one-year-old to play with on a hot day than a water table. If you don't have one, a few water bowls or buckets would do. They will be engaged in sensory exploration and pouring skill development.

       

 

Play Kitchen 

Give the child baby-safe empty containers for a play kitchen, such as used oatmeal cartons, various Tupperware storage containers, wooden spoons, and empty spice bottles or shakers.

    

 

PUZZLES

Puzzles are the ideal activity for parents and their child to do together at home.
Parents can choose Puzzles that are suitable for their child's age. They are a fun way to test their coordination and problem-solving skills.

For this child, she likes letter mat puzzles. She's not very much interested into wooden puzzles just yet.

              

 

     

Playing Bubbles 

Children of all ages enjoy their favorite activity of blowing bubbles. When a baby plays with or watches someone else blow bubbles, they are developing their fine and gross motor skills as well as their spatial and body awareness. 

 

Interactive Flash cards.
Playing with the family is fun. Parent can teach the child the words like animals with sounds, vehicles food, etc. It is best for child's oral language and picture recognition. The child will imitate the words. This English card reader is fun and interactive.

    

 

Read a book. 


It never becomes old to read a book. A child may learn so much as she flips through the pages of the book. Her cognitive abilities, conversational communication, and picture identification might all be improved. Reading a book to a child is a wonderful way for parents to strengthen their relationship.
