Expose your children to different situations and mediums for inspiration. A box of crayons is a good start, but here’s how to go further.

If you’re concerned that exposing your children to multiple languages as toddlers will affect their speech or comprehension when starting school, don’t worry.

Parents, remember how important it is not to shame or punish your children about bedwetting or accidents. Be patient.

Patience is critical during the toddler stage – the toddler needs to learn it, and the parent needs to have endless reserves of it.
