Keep Kids Entertained

Wondering how to entertain your baby? Face to face interaction can go a long way with infants. This will make it easier for them to recognize your face in the future (as well as human faces in general). You may also consider listening to nursery rhymes or children’s songs; your baby will be introduced to a more extensive vocabulary of words - which can improve their language skills in the future - while being soothed in the process. And, if your baby prefers to be more hands-on, make sure you’re regularly changing the toys they play with so they are being introduced to a wide variety of shapes, colors, patterns, and textures.

Looking for ways to keep a toddler busy? For slightly older children - 2, 3, or 4 years old, boy or girl - exposing them to new environments can be really fun and help occupy their attention. Whether it’s a walk to the mailbox, a trip to the grocery store, or a stroll through the backyard, doing these simple things can help broaden your child’s understanding of the world. For those parents who want to start introducing key concepts like numbers and phonics at home from an early age, try introducing your child to educational games that will keep them occupied while providing their growing brain with a healthy dose of learning.

Need toys for entertaining your kids while you get work done around the house? Choose items your children can use to play pretend. Costumes and dolls are both great ways to keep your child busy while inspiring their imagination. While not necessarily “toys,” coloring books can also help your children express themselves while improving hand-eye coordination and focus. Or, if your child is more hands-on, they may prefer building toys, like Legos, that allows them to physically create whatever they can dream up.
