Indoor Games Overview
Toddlers learn so much from
playing games. It is a great way to teach and have fun with your
child at the same time. These games will help develop both fine and
gross motor skills. Parent supervision is required for many of these
games. Do not leave your child alone with objects such as balloons,
etc. Safety comes first! Have fun!
