Age 1+

Congratulations! The little one in your life has reached that super special first birthday milestone, and look how far they’ve come (and you, for that matter...)! That little baby is, well, not so much of a baby anymore, but their own little character with likes, dislikes, mannerisms and a whole load of excitable energy.  

One-year-olds are infinitely curious about the world around them, keen to explore and discover new experiences, but at this age, they’re still very much reliant on the grown-ups around them for physical and emotional support. Discover advice around development stages, milestones, and fun activities for 1 year olds. 

Play experiences at this age tend to be focused on fine motor, gross motor and early problem-solving skills. Your little one may enjoy exploring cause and effect (like pressing a button on a toy that triggers a sound), activities that involve stacking or sorting shapes, or sensory experiences such as light, sound, touch, smell and taste – like pouring water from a cup, drumming with pots & pans, or building with large, colorful LEGO® DUPLO® blocks. 

We know that kids’ development at this age really varies, so whether you’ve got a crawler, cruiser, walker, chatterbox or none of these yet, we’ve got you covered with our content for one-year-olds! From advice around development stages, milestones and those much-coveted ‘firsts’, to the play styles best suited to this age and structured and unstructured activities, including creative play with LEGO DUPLO, to nurture their learning and love of play! 

So, are you ready to get started? Let’s explore this crazy journey into the land of one-year-olds together – we’ve got you!
