Students in the Parenting & Child Development class recently completed a toddler simulation. Students were tasked with completing various activities a toddler may complete, but with an added level of difficulty to make the experience new to them to mimic what a toddler may experience. Activities included drawing a self-portrait with their non-dominant hand, tying a shoe with one hand, and putting a puzzle together blindfolded.
