Solve This Problem
Challenge your child to solve these problems:
- Tie a ribbon on the child's wrist and see if she can pull it off.
- Put a piece of tape anywhere on the child's body that he can reach and see if the child can pull it off.
- Put a small blanket or cloth over the child's face and let her pull it off. Say, "Where's (child's name)?" and pretend to have lost her. Then, when she pulls off the cloth, say, "There's (child's name)!" and hug, of course.
- Tie small bells on his hands or feet and see if he notices that he can make them jingle.
Senses used: proprioceptive, kinesthetic, haptic, hearing, vision, touch, echolocation
