At one year old, your child should constantly be supervised with no access to the bin (toddlers tend to put whatever they find in their mouth). You can give your child positive and negative feedback for their actions with manually correcting when needed.

She is supervised, both of us were in the kitchen with her. I caught the item before they were actually in the trash and helped redirect her to the correct location. She’s just excited she learned how to open the trash can and likes helping.
