Whether it’s raining with the onset of winter, or you’re in lockdown, like us Melbourne people 😩, are you struggling to find indoor activities for your little ones? Setting up a little role play corner is a wonderful way to keep kids busy and off screens📱. Kids of all ages and genders love role play 💕 In addition to building communication and social development, it allows empathy to grow. Children learn to sympathise and understand certain emotional situations. When children pretend to be someone else, or use objects as something else, they are experimenting with different social situations as well as different emotions. They learn how to interact, cooperate and collaborate with each other in order to play. Roleplay allows a safe environment for them to express themselves and overcome anxieties or fears. You don’t need anything fancy for role-play either. You can use old clothes, shoes, bags and kitchen items (safe ones of course). Or make pretend play items out of cardboard! If you’re looking for an ongoing investment toy for some role play fun, you can also try our gorgeous range of role play toys which are simple, sustainable and lots of fun 🙌 This picture features our lovely Hape high chair.

Finger Strengthening: Hand muscle strenth improvement activity. . . Water + Child = Best Combination. I have heard from many mothers about their kiddos loving water so much. And yes, this task would definitely serve that ‘Favorite’ part of their brain. . . Physical development is as important as Cognitive development for a child. Hand muscle strengthening has many benefits such as • Develop Grasp patterns • Develop Pinch strength • Develop Hand Arches • Ability to hold pencil/Crayon| for longer time etc. . . Activity Details: Got a glass door in your house? Or a Long mirror available? Boom! Give your kiddo water sprinkler (there are many sprinklers available depending on child’s strength capacity) and provide with his/her favorite foam-boards. I have use Pretty Summer like Butterfly 🦋 and flower boards that my daughter loves to talk about (like all the time!). I got these foam-boards from @target dollar racks. Yes I am a #targetdollarspotaddict 😃 . . . Sprinkler push-pull repeatedly would increase hand muscle’s endurance and ultimately strength. Fun activity with lots of benefits!! . . #otpark #otparkbox #otpark #occupationaltherapy #otmom #occupationaltherapist #occupationaltherapylife #ota #otd #otpassion #hiralot #occupationaltherapyassistant #ota #playathomemom #playathomemommy #playathomeideas #toddlermom #momlife #toddlerlife #kidsactivities #targetclearance #targetkids #crafts #handstrengthening #physicalactivitiesforkids #occupationaltherapist #proudot https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz6KEcdARDv/?igshid=1om93mqvyc16a

The Cake-Project! . Remember a couple of days back@I posted about using Tissue-paper roll and Dropper/Squeezer task? So this one is next step to that. 😃 Once your base of the cake is all painted top that with soft soft Shaving Cream!! Yes!! And ask your kiddo to spread it with the flat-brush like a pro-cakeDesigner!! And trust me, the tiny humans knows exactly what to do. 👍 A fabulous indoor/outdoor activity that develops a variety of skills. Variation: if kid’s attention allows- ask to color the shaving cream with Spray paints! 🔫🚿✉️ 😊 . skills: Coordination + fine motor skills + attention span + focused attention + grip and grasp development + Problem solving and planning skills + Sensory exposure to soft touch etc. . . #otpark #otparkbox #otparkideas #parentsbelike #momlife #kidscrafts #finemotorskills #toddlerlearning #playathomemom #playathomemommy #playathomeideas #toddleractivitybook #homebasedactivities #toddlerslearning #occupationaltherapy #otmom #busybabies #happychildrenCarefreeParents #attentiondeficit #coordination #posturedevelopment #sensoryexploration #sensoryfun #sensorybin #sensoryexposureathome https://www.instagram.com/p/By1pJFQAVkI/?igshid=1rgrz9o6cylxy

Starting Series of Activities for 4 Month old little bugs.😊😊 . . Activity is “Lift your Head up and play the Drum!” . . It is very much important to have your 2-4 months old try and develop head control. This activity enhances their curiosity that “wait! This is kinda fun drum!” And they try to hold that cute little stick and try to make noise. Again it is NOT a solitary play. A parent has to be supervising. And see those magical moments. . . How to make this task: get an empty box (I know we all have such boxes 📦 thanks to Amazon🤪). Cover it with Aluminum Foil (that also we all have in our pantry) & use any iceCream decoration stick or anything you like, as drum-stick. And its Ready!! . . skills: Vision Development + Visual tracking + Head control + balance on Tummy + Tummy time + hand and body control + fun. . . #otpark #kidscrafts #momlife #parentsbelike #toddlerlearning #finemotorskills #headcontrol #4monthsold #activityideasforkids #activitiesforinfants #infanttasks #infantlearning #momandme #homesweethome #earlychildhoodeducation #earlyintervention #earlylearningtoys #diyforkids #DIY #occupationaltherapy #otd #occupationaltherapy #ota #occupationaltherapist #infant #babyactivities #playathomemommy #playathomemummy #playathomeideas #playathomebabies #playathomemom https://www.instagram.com/p/ByssBzaAmoL/?igshid=1xxmn16ql8vhk
