Free Parent Involvement Activity - "I Spy" - Age 1

Observation & Discovery, Language Skills

Surround yourself and your child with a number of your child's toys, then give him clues as to which toy you are thinking about. For example, "I spy a vehicle that has a loud siren." If he doesn't immediately point out or pick up his fire truck, give him more clues: "I spy a vehicle that rushes to put out a fire."

When you are on a walk,you can also play I Spy. For example, you might say, "I spy something that barks," and your child can point out the neighbor's dog.
