6 months to 4 years

During a child's journey, the toddler stage represents a significant period of transformation and milestone achievement. They transition from infancy to becoming independent and curious individuals!

While each toddler is distinct, there are fundamental milestones crucial for their development at specific intervals.

Below, we delve into comprehending the evolving brain. First, let's explore four key areas where small adjustments can foster a happier, healthier toddler:

  • Autonomy

  • Physical Activity

  • Rest

  • Dietary Habits and Hydration

Embracing Independence: The joys & Challenges

From exploring their food by tossing it around and crawling into unexpected places, your toddler's newfound independence is an adventure!

During these explorative years, it's essential for them to feel secure both inside and outside. Building good body awareness is key to this safety.

Body awareness means understanding where your body is in relation to your surroundings. As toddlers explore, their brains create a map of their bodies, enabling precise movement control. When this body map isn't well-formed, toddlers may struggle to navigate their environment smoothly and interact effectively with objects.

Signs of poor body awareness in toddlers include frequent stumbling, excessive leaning on others, clumsiness, and unintentional breakage of items. Parents often notice their child's seemingly unaware strength.
