As toddlers are growing up, they develop various kinds of behaviors that make them different from each other. Most of the times it so happen that they tend to copy the behavior of grown ups. For instance, they might copy the activities of their elder siblings or parents and assume to be either one of them.
It nothing but a natural workout for their developing brains, asserts Maureen O’Brien, Ph.D., author of Watch Me Grow: I’m One-Two-Three.
Repeating adult actions builds toddlers’ memory, language, and social skills. They also start to understand that it takes a series of actions to make some things happen (first you open the fridge, then you take out the apple juice...). Plus, your toddler gets a chance to feel like a big kid and you get a peek into his growing mind.
