Just got this one:
Other developments: Puzzles and pictures
At 23 months, your toddler may have the brain power and fine-motor skills to complete a jigsaw puzzle that's composed of three to six pieces. She may also be able to draw circles (don't expect them to be smooth yet), in addition to vertical and horizontal lines. See if she can build a tower of six or more blocks or is coordinated enough to press "pop" beads together or string large wooden beads on a cord.
Give her opportunities to fine-tune her finger and hand work by scooping up and pouring out sand or birdseed, pouring water, squeezing moldable compounds like Play-Doh or even bread dough if you like to cook together. Have crayons and paints available for her to create art with, and let her see you writing and drawing. Then watch how she tries to imitate you.
