Play Classical Music to Strengthen Your Toddler's Listening Skills
Using a doll and accessories (doll bed, doll clothes, bottles, combs, diapers, etc.) teach your toddler how to care for others. Hold the doll and say “the baby needs to eat, or the baby needs to be changed, or the baby’s clothes are dirty and need to be changed and washed, etc. This activity not only teaches your toddler language, motor and social skills but it will also encourage your toddler to be sensitive to other’s needs.
