Toddler activities - Music, games & dancing to boost brain development & body awareness

It’s time to get your toddler on their feet, boost their growing brain and help their development.
This quick activity session with me Katie at The Sensory Network will fill your little one with joy!

You will need:
A scarf (or tea towel, a t shirt, or some material) to wave.
A balloon!

How will this session boost your toddlers development? Read below 👇🏻

Patting and clapping:
Helps the brain to recognise a repeating pattern that improves working memory. It will also work on Motor skills and coordination that will improve movement patterns as they grow. Improving hand dexterity will help with writing, for example.

Balloon keepy uppy’s:
Using 2 hands in an alternate momvement to keep the balloon up will improve bilateral integration-such an important skill for using both sides of the body at the same time!

Hand eye coordination - can their hands follow their eyes? A great way to work on and master this skill!

Bubble popping and bubble blowing:
Another great one for hand - eye coordination. Blowing the bubbles is ideal for learning about breath control, improving speech and helping with regulation.
