Games for babies & toddlers

The wonderful thing about playing with your children is that some of the light-hearted fun in life can return to our challenging adult world and imagination, and the wonder of rediscovering the most amazing things often invigorates creativity and enjoyment.

Games are quite complex in what they achieve with little ones. Some stimulate development, be it cognitive, physical or emotional. Play may help focus concentration and liberate the Einstein in every growing child. It can also be used as a tool to calm and soothe and instinctively mould logical, clear-thinking ability. Play is, quite simply, a parent’s best child-rearing tool, too.

When your day is jam-packed and your imagination has all but run dry, consult this list for play ideas guaranteed to provide just what you and your little one need – simply respond instinctively to what feels right for the prevailing circumstances.
