So yesterday evening we played with this balloon for more than half an hour, which was really a good time to stick with one toy for baby M.
.

.
While playing I figured how this simple play can help me teach her so many big things in life.
.
.
It will help build resilience, which I believe is the key to emotional development of a child. When the balloon popped, she was about to cry but talking to her through it helped her cope up.
.
.
I was repeatedly using action words when balloon went up in the air & down on the floor.
.
.
.
Also we describing words like red colour balloon, big & small balloon.
.
.
.
We played catch the balloon, and she really enjoyed it as a balloon was much easier for her to catch instead of a ball.
.
.
.
I feel this small play time had so much to learn like positions, colours, sizes, hand eye co ordination.

What did you learn while playing with a balloon, I would love to know and teach my daughter next time we play with a balloon
