Milestones this age: Shows emotions like joy, sadness, anger, fear • Imitates adult actions during play • Uses 2-3 word sentences • Names familiar objects and people • Follows simple two-step instructions • Enjoys playing alongside other children.
Safety notes
- ⚠️ Always ensure all tea set pieces and pretend food are age-appropriate, non-toxic, and too large to be choking hazards. • Supervise closely when using any liquids to prevent spills and ensure safe play. • Ensure small parts are not accessible to children under 3. • Never leave a toddler unsupervised, especially near any water, even a small amount. When to call your pediatrician: If your child is not using at least 50 words, not combining two words into phrases, not imitating actions or words, or losing skills they once had. Always discuss any concerns about your child's development with your pediatrician.
Cleanup
