Children begin to play together but the activities are not coordinated!
Like here, these Little D and her friend is playing with the same thing, play dough but they are not working together to make something.. Yet!
This form of play can vary to remain in a child till they are around 3-4years.
What a parent can do to help:
✖️Teach your kids to play fair and share - sharing can only be taught through reward. Reward of appreciation! Similarly playing fair should apply to all kids. If your child's friend has come over to play, treat both of them equally. Kids observe a lot!
.
✖️And ofcourse, organize regular play dates. They love to use their toys more when they have someone to share it with! Ofcourse they do not understand it yet, but that's the best way to learn
.
✖️Keep their tummies full before a play date. Most tantrums root from the basic cause of hunger or sleep, at this age. So make sure your tot is well fed and rested
What do you do to make a play date fun filled?
