For continued development, encourage the child to help with other household chores that involve physical activity, such as sweeping the floor or folding laundry. Introduce simple games or exercises that further support their motor skills, such as playing catch or practicing yoga poses. Additionally, outdoor activities like riding a tricycle or playing on a playground can also contribute to their physical development.
