Have play dates. If your child is mostly at home with a parent, expose him to other children through play dates, trips to the park and quality time with other family members and friends. Let the child spend time, without you, with other adults as well.
Start young. Take your toddler to a play group or other group setting where there is exposure to others his own age.
Build your child's self-confidence. Help him learn and achieve new tasks and responsibilities, showing him exactly what he is capable of.
Let kids figure things out themselves. Remember that they need to be able to learn how to do this for themselves. Allow opportunities for them to think it through and interact with others on their own.
Communicate. Talking with your child, teach him speech, words, vocabulary and how to interact with others.
