Your 17-Month-Old

FUN ACTIVITIES

Make a family photo album. Carefully constructed albums or scrapbooks will preserve your memories for years. How about getting the whole family involved? Try creating a scrapbook from your most recent holiday. Let each family member decorate a page with his or her favourite photos and memorabilia. A family collage is another fun way to showcase your memories. Ask each family member to gather pictures and other items. Then sit down together and assemble your collage. This wonderful keepsake item can then be passed through the generations.

Explore marine wildlife. Aquariums filled with fish, colourful rocks and plants can be entertaining and relaxing for your child. You can also take him outside to a pond, stream or lake, being sure to keep a close eye on him. Sit and watch birds and insects play by the water's edge. Then take a closer look at the many creatures that make their homes in the water.
