You can extend your child’s attention to places far away by pointing to an object of interest. Your child is used to taking turns putting objects into a box near you. Now you can extend that familiar activity to putting away in a location that’s farther away.
Your child depends on your gestures to help them understand your directions at this level.
Today’s activity: Give your child an object and point to a location where you want them to put it. Say, “Put it in,” as you point.
