Kids under two can have fun too! My sweet baby girl just turned 2 but she has been playing and creating with us since she was only 6 months old. There is so much fun babies and toddlers can have. Just check out all these activities for kids under 2. Below are our favorite 22 activities for one year olds but older kids will like them too. Only you as a parent/ teacher know what your children are ready to do, only expose them to materials you are comfortable with and remember that all activities on No Time For Flash Cards require adult supervision. Now to the fun!

Thank you, thank you for these ideas!! I have a 14mo old and have been putting together activities for him, but find most out there are for older kids. Much appreciated!!

I love this post. Mine is actually over two. He’ll be 2 1/2 in a few days but I still think he’ll love a bunch of these activities. Since it’s summer and I also have a 4 year old to entertain, it’s sometimes nice to have something to fall back on that is just “easy” and “low pressure”. Thanks!

Wow! I love these ideas! I love the bubble wrap starfish. I never would have thought to do that with bubble wrap and am so excited to try it with my children. With a 15 mo old and 3 year old I find myself doing most projects with my 3 year old while the 15 mo old naps. It is great to have ideas on how to get him involved.

Love this list! What kind of paint do you use? My 14 mo old son still loves to put everything in this mouth so I rarely break out the crayons or paint for fear of it being harmful. Suggestions?? Thanks!

The handicrafts of India reflect the rich culture of the country. Children can learn a lot from our craft heritage and parents can facilitate this by doing these colourful activities with their kids.
