One of the things that you must remember :
Development is a process and you cannot expect a 2 year old to do what a four year old can do. For example a a two year old child cannot use a scissors to cut because her fingers are not strong enough to manipulate the scissors. Young children need to tear paper and squeeze small glue bottles to develop their finger muscles.Play dough is also good and toys that they can manipulate.
When you set expectations that is not age appropriate it only frustrate infants/toddlers and turn them off from learning. The idea is to build self esteem during the infant/toddler years.
Sharing information and advice on the most critical time... The first 2000 Days. What are some things you can look out for and some activities you can do with infants/toddlers to get them through the various developmental milestones before they get to school. Also I will share information for the caregivers from age appropriate books to setting up classrooms.
