You don’t need the most expensive toys to have fun with your baby. Collect some old cereal boxes, plastic bowls, yogurt containers and empty DVD cases and build together a tower with all the different shapes. Once the tower has reached his full height, take it in turns to knock it down again. Your baby will be amazed to see it all collapse. Find more baby developmental games here

Are you wondering how to bring up your child with two or more languages? Don’t worry, it will happen automatically, if you TALK to them. My husband and I have different native languages. Our kids are 3 and 1 year now and we are raising them bilingual. We have never read any books or got some special advice on how to raise a bilingual child. We just do what we feel is the right thing to do: We are speaking to our children in our own native language. And the result is truly amazing. Our 3 year old little girl can switch between both languages like a master. She may not have the same fluent speech like other same aged kids who are monolingual (they speak 1 language), but she will catch up with them shortly and then she can speak 2 languages fluently, how cool is that? And even our 1 year old son understands every word we say in both languages. Here is a 10 step guide on how to raise a bilingual child
A popular game not only for adults: Take 3 non-see-through plastic cups. Put a little ball or other rolling object under one of the cups. Then slowly move the cups each by one position. Start very slowly, so your baby gets used to it. Then ask baby “where is the ball” and he will lift the right (or the wrong) cup. This game is also a good example to teach him to “wait”, because usually the toddler wants to find the ball before I ask the question. Find more developmental games for babies here
