By the Edistää team · Parenting tips
Active children need plenty of ways to move, create and explore. Here are six ideas from the Edistää team to keep your little one happily engaged.
1
Outdoor play
Children need a minimum of 30 minutes of outdoor playtime in an open space like a garden or ground, where they can play physical games or explore equipment.
2
Music and movement
Engage children in activities where they can interact with music and experience movement – simply play music and dance together at home, or explore different genres of music.
3
Creative play
Messy play with paint, play-dough or guided craft lets children express themselves while keeping them physically occupied.
4
Include them in daily chores
Let children help with daily chores at home – it makes them aware of their routine and builds a sense of responsibility.
5
Free play
Let your child play freely with toys. Such play fosters creativity, builds independence and develops emotional ties.
6
Take them for a stroll
Children learn a lot by observing. A walk around the neighbourhood creates awareness of the world around them – and is great exercise too.
