Encourage Toddler Activity

It may seem like just child's play, but toddlers are hard at work learning important physical skills as they gain muscle control, balance, and coordination. Each new skill learned leads to progression of a new skill. Building on a skill foundation can lead to more complicated physical tasks, such as jumping rope, kicking a ball away from home, or turning a cartwheel. Toddlers always want to do more, which could motivate them to help keep trying until they master a new skill.

Make use of your child's natural need to keep moving, even at an early age, kids establish patterns of activity that carry through the rest of childhood. So an active child now could lead working toddler probably will remain active later.
