3. Guess The Smell
What’s needed to do this activity
Few household goods which are familiar to your baby, like chocolate, baby shampoo, flowers etc.
How to do the activity
Blindfold the baby gently with a scarf. Now bring an item next to the baby’s nose and let him/her guess the smell. Later to increase the difficulty level, you can add some products which the baby does not know. Reward the baby with a hug or kiss for every identification. You may have to demonstrate it by doing it yourself. If the baby is not comfortable with blindfold, you could hide the objects in a bottle or container and bring it near baby’s nose to guess the smell.
