Games foer stimulation

[Mumma_al]

Hi there
I have a 15mth old DD who is very bright - she can talk sentences and count (forward and backwards) among other things

goodness knows where she got it off :laughing:

Im after some games and things that we can do to keep her active and get her mind going - Her Doctor has suggested Swimming lessons and preschool/play groups.

I'd love to help her learn more since she is so willing :smiliedance:

wow i'm impressed!! My DS can talk very little short sentence but not count at all.

This is what i do with my DS (unless you are already doing so)

I play with flash cards, like animals and colours.
I hide things like his shoes and ask him to find them (i hide them in obvious places)
I walk around the house and i try to get him to point to stuff, like wheres the tv, he doesnt point but looks at it

And I do general stuff like read books, play with him with his toys etc... but when we do play it's always interactive.

I hope this helps :D

My 11mth old neice is at the standard of a 2yr old.She says sentences,counts and is almost fully potty trained.We all go crazy trying to stimulate her.So far books have been the best way and she is starting to read small words:eek: We playgames like place one toy under a cup and mix 3 cups up and get her to pick the one the toy is under.we taught her to play fetch with the dog.We also hide things and go on treasure hunts.Lots of outdoor time is good to.

Just noticed your in Newcastle.There is a playgroup somewhere there for parents and children like your daughter.They teach you how to help your child.Not sure where it is.Ask your CHN.My neice Elysia is in Charlestown and has been refered on to them.
