Month 20 news
Timber! By now your toddler may be embracing their inner builder and could be able to stack three blocks on top of each other after being shown how. From this you might even be able to work out whether they're right-handed or a leftie!

| The Expert View |
|
| You may have had to learn these past 20 months how to function on very little sleep, but your toddler still needs 12-14 hours to help them not just replenish energy, but also to grow. Stick to regular bedtimes so their own little body clock develops naturally. It also helps if they feel in control of the routine, so let them choose their bedtime toy or story. More on getting your toddler to sleep. |

| Need to know |
|
| One of the most enjoyable things about this stage is seeing your toddler building up their vocabulary. They can learn how to pronounce new words and make new sounds by watching the movement of your lips, so whenever possible, try getting down to your toddler's level while you talk to them. |

Tips for you |

Tip:
Miraculous meal planning |
|

|
|
Tip:
Healthy snacks |
|
| Your toddler should be enjoying 2-3 snacks each day, but try to do all you can to avoid those high in sugar or salt. Look for snacks that are higher in nutrients instead, such as swapping crisps for cucumber, carrot sticks or a banana instead. |
