When you have little ones that are not ready to go to school yet and you wonder what should they be doing?


1. Freedom within boundaries: Let them be free to touch things, carry things, and explore things.

2. A prepared environment: Any space where you don't have to be saying "No" all the time. Have toys within reach, have books within reach, cover up sockets, remove things you don't want to break, move the center table etc.

3. Books: Read books, have books for them to explore, look at, feel etc.

4. Outdoor time: Loads of outdoor times to walk around, see, touch sand, grass etc.

5. Loveeeee: They need Love. Hugs, kisses... More hugs more kisses, enjoy while the tantrums are still short. 😂

6. Live life with you: They need to see you live life and carry them alongside your living. Enter the kitchen together, load the laundry, eat together etc.

7. Structured play: (I won't call this one a need sha but "nice to have ) activities that promote, sensory, fine motor skill, boosts creativity, gross motor skills, science etc.

Honestly, if you just give your LOs the environment to thrive, you have done 50% of the work.
What else would you say 1-2 year old need at home?
