Important: When choosing fun activities to do with your child, it is important to consider your child’s age and developmental level. Some activities can present choking or other safety hazards for children and may be otherwise inappropriate for your child. Before using any of these activities, be certain that it is appropriate for your child’s age and capabilities.
COAD assumes no responsibility for injury or accident as a result of trying these activities. Remember, all children develop differently and your child will enjoy activities much more when they are ready for them. You, the parent, know your child’s abilities and limitations best. If you have questions about developmentally appropriate practice, give our counselors a call at 800-577-2276.
