Look Mumma, I Can Do It Myself!
Hi, Mumma, making a few changes at home can help me be more independent. Here are some adjustments we can make:
Dedicated Shoe Storage
What to Do:
Place a box or basket specifically for my shoes near the door.
Benefits:
This arrangement helps me become more organised and less frustrated when it comes to finding and storing my shoes. It helps me manage my own footwear, which promotes toddler independence.
Portable Step-Stool
What to Do:
Give me a step stool that is lightweight and portable so I can use it wherever in the house.
Benefits:
This is like having a step stool that lets someone reach the top shelf. It makes easier for me to get to sinks, counters, and other spots that are usually just too high. This way, touching up or cleaning becomes easier, its all about feeling fresh and taken care of
Accessible Child-Safe Dishes
What to Do:
Organise my dishes so I can reach them easily on my own by placing them on a low shelf.
Benefits:
This accessibility motivates me to assist with setting the table and putting away dishes, encouraging accountability and involvement in household tasks. This change to the house to make it more kid-friendly is excellent for my early growth and is helping me become more independent.
Low Laundry Basket
What to Do:
Place a laundry basket at a height accessible to me.
Benefits:
It encourages me to fold my clothes rather than leaving them on the ground. It makes it easier for me to take care of myself because this small thing inspires me to be more self-reliant and accountable.
Accessible Toy Storage
What to Do:
Use open storage boxes and low shelves. to store my toys.
Benefits:
It becomes easier for me to find and put my toys where they belong. I learn to take care of my things and keep my play area clean. This helps me become more independent and feel proud of myself when I get things done.
