HOW TO TEACH A 1-YEAR-OLD | Homeschool Routine for a 1 Year Old (12-15 Months)

HOW TO TEACH A 1-YEAR-OLD // Homeschool Routine for a 1 Year Old (12-15 Months)
Looking for ideas for how to teach a 1-year-old? In this video, I'm sharing my "homeschool" routine for a 1-year-old (more specifically, toddlers 12-15 months). This is a VERY basic and relaxed, child-led, play-based homeschool "curriculum," which focuses on 5 major areas of development (fine motor skills, gross motor skills, language development, cognitive development and social-emotional development).
*Disclaimer* Always closely supervise your child during all of these activities as they may contain choking hazards.
⭐️ Tip! Make a Visual Schedule to help your little one know what to expect throughout the day!⭐️

Welcome to Pocketful of Parenting (formerly The Innovative Momma)! I’m Jess - a Parenting Coach, Certified Positive Discipline Educator, former preschool/kindergarten teacher & momma!
Parenting is TOUGH - especially in the early years where the sleep is little and the feelings are BIG. My mission is to help reframe the idea of the “terrible twos,” “threenagers,” and “fournados” to help parents LOVE LIFE WITH LITTLES!
I provide science-based information on your child’s developing brain to help you gain a better understanding and form a deeper connection with your little one. I’ll also be sharing tools you can use to help your child get through their big emotions while keeping your cool in the process. (Say “bye-bye” to yelling, bribes, threats & punishments!)
You’ll also find easy play activities to help support your child’s development across multiple areas, such as: fine and gross motor skills, cognitive development, social-emotional development, and language development.

[@sylthedeal1]

I'm a solopreneur working from my home office with 3 days per week, fulltime 24 hour care of my 15 month old grand daughter. Mom and dad both work long hours Sunday through Wednesday so I gladly have the "home school" regimen down to a T. Thanks for sharing. There are several great tips I will put to use right away. You are a gem.

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Look at you go! I’m so glad you found this helpful! Enjoy your time with your grandbaby! 🥰❤️

[@231natasha]

I'm just smiling watching your video. My son just turned 1 and I've been doing things before but not so structured. I'm excited, going to start soon. thank you

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Yay so glad! Thanks so much for sharing! And it totally doesn’t have to be super structured, but starting to get your child used to a little routine can definitely help them get used to what to expect throughout their day! Enjoy and have fun! 😊

[@iamsheribrown]

I'm an active grandma my son is in the US Navy stationed in California my daughter in law and I live in Florida with my grandson who is 1 my daughter in law works I'm retired I'm at home so I want to learn to be more than just spoiling him with things😂 I bought him a walker which taught him to walk I needed this I appreciate you I'm applying this video I take pics of everything he learns or do creatively with cuteness so my son and daughter in law can see his progress so they can be included in Sevyn's day thank you I subscribed😅❤

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Aw I love this! Thank you so much for your comment. Your grandson is so lucky to have you! ❤️😊

[@NishaHaymond-zn7vq]

I'm so happy I found this! I'm at home and my son is 13 and a half months and I was just thinking how I need a better learning routine for him. This is perfect and made me realize I'm definitely not doing enough at the moment.

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Aw, thank you so much!! ❤️

[@sjcooks3664]

This is helpful. My 18 month old does some of these but I noticed he’s been watching more tv . Definitely getting him into a flexible routine like this will allow for us to do more activities and watch less tv. Thanks

[@PocketfulofParenting]

So glad it was helpful! I totally know what you mean. I recently had my second baby and our routine has been thrown out the window, so my toddler is watching way more TV too. Having a routine definitely helps. We’re slowly getting back into it! Thanks for watching! 💗

[@SleepyBedtimeOasis]

Great advice! 03:29 - 04:46 was especially helpful. Fine motor activities like playing with blocks and engaging in drawing can greatly benefit a one-year-old's development. The activities using a container and popsicle sticks or recycled lids are fantastic ideas. Thanks for sharing! 😊

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video and these activities! 😊💕

This was so helpful! I’m a single stay at home mom and feel like I haven’t been doing enough. We do a similar routine 🥰

You go, momma!! 👏🏼 Trust me, you’re doing enough! We tend to be hard on ourselves as moms. Glad you enjoyed the video. Keep it up! 😊💗

[@theofficialkranti]

@@PocketfulofParenting It's funny because before seeing this video I had called my mom and was like " what did you do with me when you were a SAHM and we didn't go to daycare? lol and she literally said the same thing you did. She was like " you don't have to entertain him all the time" lolol yes. Us moms can definitely be hard on ourselves

How are you single and a stay at home mom?

This was so helpful. Im a first time mom and I regret so much not diving into these things when he was smaller. He's 17 mos now so I guess better late than never. Thank you so much.

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Never too late! Also, you were most likely hitting these areas with your little one without even knowing it 😉. At that age, EVERYTHING is a learning experience. So glad you found it helpful! 💗

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Aw, thank you so much! Please remember that every child develops at his/her own pace! The biggest thing at this age is to provide a simple, safe environment for your child to explore their interests and be there as a guide to support them! Don't think too much into it. You're doing a great job! 💗

So happy it was helpful! Yes, I totally get feeling like you’re not doing enough! I’ve had major mom guilt for the last 2 months since my other son was born because I’ve fallen out of my routine with my older son. As parents, we can tend to be overly hard on ourselves. Keep up the awesome work! ❤️

Thank you so much for this video! I’m a new stay at home mom and lately it has been very overwhelming trying to create a schedule and find activities for my son. He’s 12 months and I feel so guilty bc he watches tv more than he does activities :(. Any recommendations on activity items to purchase first? I don’t want to go over board purchasing items for him.

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Hi Nesha! I'm so glad this video helped! I know how overwhelming it gets being home with littles all of the time. A very loose routine definitely helps! And don't feel guilty! We go through seasons when sometimes we just need things like TV for our kids just to keep our sanity! I had my second baby in September and completely fell out of this routine and felt totally guilty that my son was watching so much TV too, so I feel you! When it comes to items and activities, I have some other videos that may help you get a better idea of what I'd recommend, but you can do so much with what you already have at home! Here are some videos that may help.

This is awesome. What are some to the books you read for story time?

[@PocketfulofParenting]

Thanks! Around this age, we loved touch and feel books or anything interactive (like lift-the-flap books). Also, shorter books with more simple story lines to hold those short attention spans. But be sure to read a variety of books and pay attentions to what your little one shows an interest in! 😊

[@tkeylove3148]

This is great but where did you get the lego board from and how long does it take to do all this including nap times....i love this so much you are awesome

[@PocketfulofParenting]

@tkeylove3148 Thanks! So glad you enjoyed! Here is my affiliate link to the table: geni.us/D2MBKb . When it comes to timing, there really is no set time for everything. I'd just recommend following your child's lead with how interested they are in each thing you do. Some days it will take longer because they'll be more interested, and some days they may want nothing to do with ANY of the activities - and that's perfectly okay! The biggest thing to remember at this age is to provide multiple opportunities for them to play and explore on their own with lots of safe, age-appropriate materials. Hope this helps! Thanks for being here! 😊

I love this so much!! Totally going to start this routine. I've been looking for something like this. Thank you. I have 1 year old twins and a 1 month old so it's a little hard to stick to anything but I'm going to try this. Thank you for posting! Can you tell me where you got those numbers, letters, and shape cards that are on your wall? I love them!!!

I'm so glad you found it helpful! Here is the link for the decor: www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Chalkboard-Brights-Classroom-Decor-2694499 (It's a digital download, so you buy it, print it and laminate it on your own). Just remember at this age they are always learning, so getting them in a loose routine is super helpful and just being a guide for them to learn! Follow their lead! You've got this! 💗

what are the sizes of the alphabet and numbers on your wall? ❤

[@PocketfulofParenting]

If you purchase the pack, you’ll see there is an option to print 4 to a page or single letters to a page. I believe I did the single option and changed my printer settings to print 2 to a page, so they’re each half a sheet of paper (horizontally). Hope this helps! 🩷

This is an excellent and very helpful video. I have been a nanny for four years now. Recently I have been taking care a six months old baby girl. Myself been in childcare field over 20 years plus. Do you think is it too early to apply all those majors areas in her routine ? She is a very high observed and aware things around her so well. Any advice you have would be much appreciated and thank you !!

[@PocketfulofParenting]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for watching. When it comes to routines, 6 months is definitely not too young for a very LOOSE routine. Having things like naps, playtime and feedings on a schedule will definitely help develop structure and routine, even at a young age. You can definitely have targeted “areas” that you explore with her during your time together, but be sure to follow her lead. For example, for movement, you can lay her down (or sit her up if she can) and hold out a toy while you encourage her to reach for it, or put on some upbeat movement and try and encourage her to move her arms and legs. The main thing is to follow her lead, interests and cues. If she shows interest in what you’re doing, keep going. If she keeps turning her head and looking away or acting uninterested, move on. Setting up a safe environment for her to explore while you sit back and observe and supervise is an awesome way for her to learn too! I hope this helps! Thank you for being here! ❤️

This is so great! I have a 14mo old and I have a loose structure like this to help him maximize his learning but nothing like this! So glad I found this channel. One question: how do you get him from not getting into all the other things in the room/ class environment? We have toys stashed away in trunks and try to do a toy rotation with his toys so he’s not overwhelmed. Is it just a matter of continuous redirecting?

[@PocketfulofParenting]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! Love that you're doing a toy rotation already! That is so helpful for keeping interest and preventing overwhelm and clutter! When it comes to not getting into the other things, I try to create a "yes" space where my kids play as much as possible - meaning what I have in their reach I'm okay with them accessing at any time. For the other supplies and tools, I have 4 tall cabinets in the playroom that have child locks on them, so I keep all of my supplies and toys that I don't want my kids to continually access in there, out of reach and locked away. I totally understand not everyone has the space or ability to have this setup, that's just what works best for us - but I would recommend trying to find a system to keep things put away that you don't want to be accessed by your little one at any time. Much less exhausting than trying to redirect constantly! This helps them to have a safe, child-friendly environment to freely explore and learn in! I hope this helps! Thanks for being here. 😊💗

On what paper did you print these? I mean did you buy multiple color sheets and took print or did you buy black paper and take color print?

Does anyone know the best :tape, glue, or stickers for hanging number posters on the walls without damage or falling off after 24hrs???

[@PocketfulofParenting]

So I used to use this 3M foam double-sided tape in my classroom, which I use at home too. It works really great and the stuff won't budge. I haven't experienced any damage to my walls but I do sometimes have to scrape off the tape with a flat tool if some gets stuck on the wall. Worth it if you're thinking of keeping stuff up for a while, in my opinion! Here's the tape : amzn.to/44eu27d
