When my daughter did this I would ask her where she wanted me to put the toy or I would hand her the toy in a fun way like have it roll or bounce over to her. It was also a good opportunity to teach her to say please lol
We’re at this stage now! I ask my little boy if he would like it back, then move it closer to him 😬
Definitely the age my little one does similar things, usually my little one is making up a game or resting to make me laugh 😂
My 3 year old used to do this constantly. I think it’s about wanting control over something since toddlers dont have much control over anything. Sometimes it’s a thing just to get attention too. Toddlers are silly.
