One Year Olds Learn Balance and Coodination

            Through the first year of your child’s growth, you are able to notice constant and remarkable physical development. Your baby was able to discover things and learned to adapt to his environment. With the age of one year old, your baby now understands most of the simple words that he hears when you converse with him. Your baby likes to imitate certain actions such as sweeping and using the telephone. It is alright for your child to see other children around him but he prefers to play on his own.

            In order for you to assist your child in developing his sense of balance as well as coordination, you can give him ride-on toys. This is one of the best outdoor toys one year olds can play. At first, you should assist him in getting on and off the ride-on toy. In time, he would be able to do this on his own but you should still remain nearby so that your child is assured that there is someone who can catch him when he falls. Once he is on his toy, you should clear the area on which the ride-on will pass. You should remember that children of this age are able to push themselves backward before they can move forward. Coordination as well as more strength is needed in acquiring the skill of being able to move forward. In order to encourage your baby to try moving himself forward, you should prepare a path for him to follow. You can stand a bit far from her and try to ask him to come closer to you. When he was able to reach you, you can then move farther.  You can use this toy when you go around your yard or even around your neighborhood.

            You can also place playsets with an animal theme outside your backyard. This is a good example of outdoor toys one year olds can have to enhance their imagination. He is able to explore new things by interacting with his playset and listening to the sounds of certain animals. You can encourage your child to mimic the animal sounds that he hears so that his skill for recognition is enhanced. One year olds love to imitate the actions that they see. You can introduce to him how certain animals walk then you can let him practice different animal walks. You can ask him to do so in random so that your child’s memory is also challenged. Miniature of vehicles that can be seen around the community can also be used as outdoor toys for your child. You can teach them about the specific uses of each of the vehicles like the garbage truck for collecting the trash from every house. You should remember that you should give simple descriptions to your child. You can also point the actual vehicle when they pass by so that he will be apply to conceptualize what he has learned from the miniature vehicles as well as the information you have provided him.
