Picnic Adventures
Parent and toddler share an outdoor picnic experience where the parent observes the child's emerging independence with utensils and pointing communication. The agent coaches the parent to notice self-feeding attempts, cooperative mealtime behaviors, and intentional pointing to share interest — building social skills and autonomy through shared daily routines.
Free to do together whenever you like.
What you'll need
Toddler and parent sitting on a blanket outdoors or near a window. Have toddler-friendly finger foods, a small cup with water, and a spoon available. Ensure the area is safe and comfortable for sitting.
