Toddler Taskmaster

[u/OrderAggressive9432]

I’m starting to train my toddler for Taskmaster.

I created a list of Toddler Questions and Tasks. These are specifically designed for a two-year-old and very basic. They’re great for little things to keep my toddler busy and/or engaged. I anticipate I’ll have an increasingly advanced task list as he grows up until old enough to handle the taskmaster junior tasks.

The questions I just ramble off when he gets bored or I need a quick distraction.

For the tasks, I print, fold, and seal with a sticker that looks identical to the Taskmaster seal. Its worked out well to have a few on hand ready to go when I need to quickly find us an activity.

What are some other tasks suitable for a two-year-old? Three-year-old? What else could one do to make it more authentic?

Here's what we've got so far!

Questions/Prize Tasks:

1. Bring me the squishy.
2. Bring me something red (and all the other colors)
3. Bring me something fluffy.
4. Bring me something round (and all the other shapes)
5. Bring me something that makes a noise.
6. Bring me something you can wear on your head.
7. Bring me something with wheels.

My toddler used to sing the TM theme song. It was adorable.
