Toddlers are showing you that the foundation you built during their babyhood is paying off by interacting with others, enjoying the world around them, and doing what toddlers do best — exploring. Ensure that the environment is safe and that allow your child to explore, even if it isn’t with formal toys. Even a crinkled-up piece of paper can be a ball, and you can introduce toddlers to music by simply playing your favorite songs and singing along with them.
