Even if I am in the same room or nearby, she will not play on her own. When I ask her to play on h...

Hi. I am undecided on the theme for my little one. I was thinking something music themed or tea party. Music because she loves songs. She doesn't have a favorite anything yet. What is everyone doing for their toddlers' birthday?

I can see in some posts about people playing with there little ones? What does this consist of? I sit with her on her play mat and let her hear the sounds of the toys and do smiley time with her.
