Answer:
1.Provide a play environment that encourages lots of time and space for energetic and noisy play
Stretch out body parts. Stretch and gently wiggle your toes, feet, legs, arms, and fingers. Gently stretch your neck by looking side to side and up and down
Set aside family time for a hike, walk, or visit to a nearby park. Play games that involve running, hopping, throwing and catching together
When playing ball, ask the child to use alternate feet for kicking or alternate hands for batting. Make sure the ball is large enough to promote success, yet
2.. When I point to something, tell me what it is. While you are telling me, look at it and point to it too.

4. Talk to me about what I am doing. Using words to describe my actions and feelings helps me learn those words too.
5. Take turns chatting back and forth with me. Listen to what I am saying –then imitate my coos or babbles. If I’m older, you can reply to my questions and ask your own. I like open-ended questions that don’t have right or wrong answers.

7. Sing with me. It’s easier to learn words in songs. I can learn about rhymes, the ABC song, the colors of my clothing, and the names of my friends.
8. Take me to the library. Read me a book, let me decide how you do it and when we are done. Let me mouth board books, handle them and decide which to explore. Check out the thrift store and buy me a few board books (wipe them with a damp cloth). At
