Children: Toddlers. Let`s Play Together!


Let`s go travelling!! 
You will need: a big towel or a blanket, pictures of different means of transport and toys.
Take a big towel or a blanket and spread it on the floor. Put your toddler onto it. Carefully and slowly pull the blanket with your kid on. Tell him he has gone travelling. Choose a vehicle you like - a car, a train, a boat, a plain... Explain that you are travelling by train (for instance) and imitate the sounds of a train 
You may show a picture of the chosen means of transport beforehand or when playing. Even if your toddler seems not to understand you he will certainly love the game and will soon start pronouncing the same sounds which is a good exercise to develop his speech. 
Toys will also be of a great help and fun in this game. Sure you have got a toy car, a toy train, etc among the toys. Use them to make your child understand better what this all is about. This game teaches a toddler to balance, imitate and widens his or her horizon.
