Is That Me?
Parent and toddler play with a mirror, using toys and a gentle mark on the cheek to explore self-recognition and self-awareness. The agent coaches the parent to observe how the child responds to their reflection, identifies familiar objects in the mirror, and notices a mark on their own face — building early social-emotional understanding and self-concept.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
Parent and toddler sitting comfortably in front of a mirror (wall-mounted or held safely). Have 2-3 familiar small toys and washable lipstick or face paint within reach. Ensure good lighting so reflections are clear.
