Stimulating Play In 12 Months Babies

• Encourage your baby’s interest in the adult world by giving her baby-sized versions of adult tools like brooms, rolling pins and prams to play with.

• Toys like shape sorters are good for improving manual dexterity too and for learning that some objects are the same shape and some are different.

• Wooden inset puzzle trays and very simple jigsaw puzzles are great for developing hand to eye coordination and special awareness.
