Depends: If your kid has normal skills you just need to make sure they have access to & encourage play activities. Those that require movement & manipulation will help skills emerge when ready. If the kid has any impairments, attend any of their PT or OT sessions and ask for help designing appropriate homework to be done between sessions.
