Activities and Strategies
for Development
Say this verse slowly, and point to your own body parts one at a time.
“Here are my eyes, here is my nose, here is my tummy and here are my toes!”
As you repeat the verse, encourage each child to point to their own eyes, nose,
tummy, and toes.
Taking Care of Baby
Set up a Dramatic Play Center with a toddler-sized toy sink or stove with
plastic dishes.
Put a doll’s bed, a doll, and a doll stroller or buggy in the Center.
Observe the children playing in the Center. Look for opportunities to talk
with the children.
Say to one child,“I think the baby is hungry. Can you make some food for
the baby?”
Observe to see if the toddler picks up the dishes.
Say,“Take the baby bye-bye,” and see if the child puts the doll in the buggy.
Or say,“The baby is sleepy,” and see if the toddler puts the doll in the crib.
