A 19-Month-Old Toddler's Development


Ensure complete development of your little one by boosting brain development through stimulating games. Here is how you can stimulate your toddler and help in her development.

Now you have someone at home keeping an eye on you constantly and mimicking all your activities. She shall now try to talk in your tone and intonation. She would love to immerse herself in different plays and games. She shall bring to you different things for your inspection. Her activities shall bring into live your childhood memories.
Your toddler shall still be dealing with separation anxieties even if one of you is present. You cannot expect her to develop the sense of reasoning yet. She certainly does not like the idea of her mom and dad going out for work. However, make sure to pay attention at her when you are around and show how wonderful you feel to be united again with all the family members. This shall help her understand how normal and healthy separations are.
You may also find her eager to talk over the phone or on the web cam when one of you is not there. For her the primary relations must be strong and she thinks herself to be the most important in your life. You thus need to handle her emotions more delicately in the next few years.
Here we shall take a closer look at her developments this month:

19-Month-Old Toddler’s Growth and Development

There are many toddlers who spend their days in the day care centres at this age. It is normal for you to raise your protective feelings when you see your little one in a group of children. Since your toddler shall be watching your emotions and reactions, remember to be encouraging and positive.
She shall now love to play in groups and show off her favourite toys to them.

Interactive Games and Play

Do not try to over stimulate your toddler with too many activities. Let her decide her own course of action from the morning. You can make her follow one planned activity in a day and that shall be enough. So, if she is attending swimming classes in the morning, let her do what she feels like in the afternoon.
She is using her creativity and imagination while playing. You can also engage in conversations with her, without trying to correct her pronunciations every time. She shall be sensitive to your criticisms and might offend her self esteem as well. It will be unfair to compare her speaking abilities with children of her age. Girls generally pick up talking ability faster than boys.

Eating Patterns of a Toddler

You can take her shopping with you and allow her to put foods in your trolley. You can show her the way to pick fruits and veggies.
She has also learnt to open the fridge now. Do not be surprised if you find her sitting with a bowl of food from the fridge. It is thus important you keep the fridge locked and also keep an eye on her snacking habits.
Carry water bottle with you, whenever you are out. You too can drink along with her. This way you can be sure she is hydrated well all through the day.

Health of your Toddler

Most of the toddlers still wear nappies and are not ready for the toilet training at this age. In case you think she shows signs of readiness, you can encourage her to use the potty seat. Usually, doctors advise parents to start potty training when child turns 15 months old. Toilet training shall require plenty of patience and encouragement on your part.
Make sure you follow a regular routine every day, so that it becomes easier for her to predict the sequence of activities.
Engage in stimulating games with her, as 90% of her brain development shall happen in the first 5 years. Playing music, engaging in painting and fun activities shall ensure complete development of your little one.
