Answer:
1. Play Ball
Take your baby out to the park for a game of ball. If you have a backyard, that’s even better. You and your child can play catch or kick with the ball. Make sure you do not use any hard balls but go for the ones made for children of their age.
2. Go Cycling
Invest in a tricycle and let your little one peddle along happily. This is good exercise and also very fun for your child.
3. Garden Gnomes
This game requires you to have a few little garden gnome figures. You could also just use any other objects you want as long as it is easy for your child to find. Just hide them around the place and give your child a basket to collect them in when they find them. You can ask them to hide the gnomes around the garden for you to find as well to keep things more interesting for them.
4. Playground
Take your child to a playground that has things like slides, swings, monkey bars, tunnels etc. so that he has the chance to develop a few extra motor skills but be sure not to leave him alone as he will still need your assistance at this age.
5. Kiddie Pool
A good activity for your child on hot summer afternoons would be swimming. You can take him to a pool and get him started. With the right gear, you can start teaching your kids how to swim, which is one of the best and most fun exercises.
Explanation:
Treasure Hunt
You will need a small treasure box decorated by the children and collect some inexpensive treasures like a few beaded necklaces and small rings, play money and perhaps some candy. Hide the treasure box somewhere in the yard then make some instructions or clues to help the children find the treasure. The clues or instructions should also be spread about and simple enough for the kids to understand like “Go to the place where the flowers grow” or “Take ten steps to the right from the benches.” Kids will definitely enjoy the activity ‘Treasure Hunt’ and even thank you for introducing this activity to you.
Musical Chairs
This game is a lot of fun and is loved by all. Set up a bunch of chairs and ask kids to run around them while the music is being played. When the music stops, the kids should sit down on the chair near them. Whoever is left without a chair will be out of the game. This means you will need to have one chair less than the number of kids playing, so be ready to shuffle those chairs about.
