My 2 years 5 month old toddler uses Adobe fresco on my wacom tablet every now and then, she knows how to switch colours and draw, I erase the page every now and then for her.

She also watches every now and then "C'est pas sorcier", a french documentary series for kids that's pretty advanced (go into details of biology etc.), on all sorts of topics (nature, science, food etc.). That's also a good way for her to experience some French as we live in the UK and her only source of French are talking to me, or to her grandmother on the phone.

Just to be clear she does plenty of other activities, we cook together (she has a children's chef knife and uses it to cut things like tofu, carrots etc.), she draws on paper, she sings and dance, goes to the swimming pool weekly etc.

As for video game, that's more for later as she does not have yet the skills for that but at a glance

- Logic : Puzzle games, things like incredible machines, but also management game like sim-city. - Creativity : Any sandbox game, the sims, minecraft, drawing game, sculpting game, animal crossing etc. - Motor skills: Platformers, fighting games...

Essentially any game that requires a lot of effort for little reward, as opposed to games that makes you touch something shiny and shower you in visual and auditive feedback.

Similar bilingual parent here.

"C'est pas socier" and "Numberblocks" are excellent.

Numberblocks gave my kid impressive numerical literacy at a super young age.
