If you could treat yourself to anything right now, what would it be? 🤔

I've just completed my weekly shopping list and realised how much is on there for the children... so I've added some pizzas, wine & chocolates for me to enjoy tomorrow night after a very busy week 😉

I'm wishing Tesco delivered reflexology, pedicures and haircuts too! 🤣

What's on your list? 💕

Did you know that imitation is one of many toddler

Did you know that imitation is one of many toddler milestones?

At around 15 months you might notice your toddler starting to copy, imitate and try out what they see. They will be closely observing what people around them are doing and what effect these actions are having.

Imitating others is helping them learn and understand how the world around them works. (It’s worth noting here that toddlers will imitate things in real life & on the television so parents might want to be mindful of what they’re seeing & hearing!)

This desire to imitate can be challenging at times, for example your toddler might want to clean the floor with you but doesn’t understand they can’t have the cleaning products or they want to fold the washing but can’t understand why you’re cross when they’re pulling it all into the floor 🙈

To overcome these challenges here are a few simple ideas to help your toddler learn through imitation:
⭐ Get some soft toys, plastic plates & food and show them how to make a picnic.
⭐ Give them their own cloth with just water on it so they can clean the house alongside you.
⭐ In the garden have a little area that’s just got soil in so they can have a go at digging with little spades & planting flowers.
⭐ If you’re washing the car bring their ride on toy alongside it and let them have their own sponge & plain water to give it a wash too.
⭐ Buy a doll so your toddler can practise feeding, changing and parenting it. This can be especially useful if you’re pregnant or have recently had a new baby.

When toddlers are fully engrossed in an imitation it can be both entertaining & heart-warming to watch 💕

This picture shows my daughter having a lovely time sweeping leaves in the garden, and although she has her own little broom she decided Daddy’s was better!

What does your toddler love to imitate? 🥰

Advice floods in from all directions as soon as a pregnancy is announced... and it often continues into your child's teenage years! 🙈🤣

Not all advice is helpful and I always encourage parents to 'cherry pick' and choose the hints that sit well and best suit their personalities & parenting style 🍒

Then politely smile at the unwanted tips and let the them roll over your head! 😉

With all of this in mind, what is the best advice you were given? 💕

Did you know your baby's foot has no arch? 🌈

Instead of a rise in the middle they have a little pad of fat.

Over time the fat disappears and the arch becomes visible 👣🥰

Did you know your baby is born with a C shaped spi

Did you know your baby is born with a C shaped spine, consisting of 33 vertebrae?

This C shape keeps babies curled up in the womb, which protects their vital organs from any outside bumps onto Mummy's tummy🤰

As babies grow this spine shape changes.

When they start lifting their head, and strengthening their neck & shoulder muscles, a little curve (called the cervical curve) forms at the top of the spine.

Later on, when babies start to sit, crawl and then walk upright, a final curve (called the lumbar curve) develops.

The result of these changes is an S shaped spine that adults have (see picture 2 to compare both spines)

This process is usually complete around 12-18 months, however always be mindful that babies develop at their own pace 👶🏻

As children grow further some of the vertebrae at the base of the spine fuse together, creating 24 vertebrae in adulthood 🥰

Does your little one love books? 📚

👶 It's never too early to start sharing books. Reading with your baby has many benefits and can be great for:

💕Bonding - when they're in the womb you can read a story so babies get used to your voice. Once born reading gives them some lovely 1:1 time with you.

👫Social & Emotional Development - the cuddling up during story time helps your baby feel safe and secure.

👀 Visual Stimulation - choose books with bright colours and sharp contrasts to catch your baby's eye as their eyesight improves.

🤸‍♀️ Physical Stimulation - board books that are robust enough for little hands (& mouths!) to explore are great and of course books with lots of textures.

🗨 Language Development - the more words your baby hears in the first weeks, months and years, the better their language skills are likely to be later on.

👂Listening - chat to your baby about the books you read. Newborns won't understand every word in the beginning but the rhythms and sounds in your voice stimulate their hearing.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Best of all book sharing can simply be fun & a lovely way for the whole family to come together and share a story.

The 'That's Not My...' series were among the first books I shared with my children. Now my 19 month old loves 'Bedtime Bear' by Julia Donaldson and 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear' by Eric Carle 🐻

What are your children's favourite books? 🥰
