As your little one approaches their third birthday, they’re diving into a world filled with new experiences and skills. At this age, they can likely wash their hands and brush their teeth (with a little help, of course). You might notice them trying to balance on one foot or even figuring out how to find the armholes in their T-shirt while you’re dressing them—though probably not all at once! With all these new abilities, it’s no surprise that spills and tumbles are part of the package. Most of these little accidents stem from developing fine motor skills, which will sharpen as they grow closer to age 3.
When you see those intentional spills, don’t rush to label them as naughty behavior; curiosity often drives these antics, not mischief. To help avoid accidents, consider moving breakable items out of reach. And when your child does throw or spill, calmly explain that it’s not okay—no need to raise your voice.
