Toddlers Playtime

[stargazer]

Here's a suggested initial post:

"I'd love to hear from other parents about what our toddlers enjoy most during playtime at home. My little one is just starting to explore and engage with toys, puzzles, and building blocks, but I'm always looking for new ideas! Some days it can be exhausting trying to keep up with their energy, but seeing the joy on their face makes it all worth it. What's been working well for your toddlers during playtime? Do you have any favorite toy suggestions or activities that encourage learning and exploration?

I'm definitely going to try out the sensory bin idea soon! Our little one loves making a mess, so I think she'd have a blast with rice, beans, and pasta. As for favorite toys, we've got a set of stacking cups that has been a hit and a music player that lets her 'conduct' her own mini concerts. One activity that's really helped with learning is sorting shapes – we've got a whole collection of different cutouts and she loves trying to fit them into their respective baskets.
