Are you looking for easy, fun and engaging activities for toddlers?

 

You are in the right place!

 

I am so excited to share a list of over 70 activities for toddlers at home!

 

Having two children myself, it is so important that we incorporate play to learn activities, sensory play, arts and crafts and all around learning through play! 

 

Toddler activities can be as simple as bringing forth and including a bin filled with: 

 

• A sensory base 

• A few of their toys

 

That’s it! That is all you really need to create an epic activity that will last hours throughout the day! 

 

Hours? Yes, hours!

What are some activities to do with toddlers? 

 

There are so many fun toddler activities you can bring forth depending on the season, the day of the week, a toddler theme, or just because… 

 

Activities for toddlers can be a simple setup and I am so excited to share some easy toddler activities below with you! 

 

Here are some toddler activity ideas we have tried in the past: 

 

• Rainbow Fish Craft made out of a recycled cardboard cutout!

• Pouring water activity for toddlers

• Easy Color Match Dot Sticker Fish Activity 

• Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Alphabet Cardboard Activity

 

And so much more! 

 

 

 

 

What are good activities for 2 year olds? 

 

I like to incorporate activities that involve a little bit of: 

 

• Fine motor skills 

• Sensory play

• Crafts for kids

 

Those are my 3 main and then I will work around themes and ideas for different seasons and such. 

 

This is a wonderful way to go about bringing forth an activity for 2 year olds making sure that the items are not small and that they are well supervised when attempting any of these activities. 

 

I’ll be sharing below many different activity ideas for toddlers, so stay tuned!

How do I entertain my 2 year old indoors? 

 

Entertaining a toddler indoors is so much fun! 

 

You can set up so many fun ideas by incorporating a bit of open ended play. 

 

For example, do you have a blue towel? 

 

This can be a pretend ocean. 

 

Then, add all of their ocean toy figures to it and pretend the sea animals are swimming in the ocean! 

 

If you are looking for more open ended toys, here are some ideas of ones we own and truly love: 

 

 

How can I stimulate my 2 year old at home? 

 

You can stimulate toddlers at home by bringing forth engaging activities such as: 

 

• Open ended play

• Sensory play

• Crafts for toddlers

• Fine motor skills

• DIY cardboard activities

• Montessori activities

 

Many of these allow for the stimulation of the brain by bringing forth play to learn activities which are so important for the stimulation of toddlers!
