Indoor Games for Toddlers
Nursery Age 1 Curriculum Suggestions
by Katrina Lybbert


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!
