Tidy up time - having a place for their favourite things can help with this cognitive skill

What to try 

• Keep your toddler’s toys and other possessions in set places. 
• When it’s time to have dinner or head to bed, encourage them to put the things they have been using back where they found them.  
• You can really challenge these skills, by seeing if they can put their own washing away or put pots and pans away in the kitchen where it is safe to do so.
