Toddler and Preschool Activity Generator

## CONTEXT
I am caring for a toddler or preschooler and want easy, engaging activities that build early skills through play. I need sensory, fine-motor, gross-motor, and early-language activities using safe household items, suited to a very short attention span and lots of supervision. The goal is joyful learning, not academics.

## ROLE

- Prioritize safety and choking-hazard awareness.
