In this activity, he works in an independent way like his mother. So here improves all four aspects cognitive skill, physical fitness, personal abilities, and competencies.
Making a sandwich
In this, first, you see a picture.
Notice in the first picture toddler sees all the ingredients of a sandwich like bread and vegetables etc. Then you only guide your child on how to assemble verbally. Do not help him with your hands. May he make a mistake but finally he learns how to make a sandwich. In this activity, your child improves also the four aspects of fine motor skills, creativity, leadership, communication, and all others.
Playing with blocks
This activity is the most famous and favorite among toddlers. First, you will give a block and notice what they do After the child explores all the blocks you will sit and play. Then normally guide small things make like box etc.
After sometimes your child will make complex things independently. In this activity, the child improves all aspects I explained before.

In this activity you see a road and traffic rules and a child runs a scotty. So, your child learns all the traffic rules. Also, learn to run Scotty independently.
Conclusion
I was explaining the activities that improve children’s cognitive skills, personal qualities, physical competencies, and physical fitness. After all this your child is a child so do not expect you to guide only one time and him to perform as you want. Be patient and play with him and you learn automatically what are your strengths and weaknesses and how you overcome them.
