The toys that your little one plays with will shape his or her development.
However, this doesn’t mean that you have to go out and buy novelty items to enhance your child’s development. Instead, involve them in making their own toys.
Occupational Therapist, Kate Bailey, shows how you can make homemade play dough. The squashing and squeezing motion will help with fine motor skill development, plus it’s the perfect opportunity to encourage creative and imaginative play.
