As we are
approaching ten months with Annabelle & Scarlett and that first birthday is
just around the corner it makes me think back to the first six months (yes I
remember them clearly even through the X2 sleep deprivation)
So today's
post is a quick one listing my top ten play time activities for 0-6 months some
tried and true and maybe some you have not done?
Perhaps you
have others you'd like to share or if you have a newborn you may get some
helpful ideas.
Without
further ado and as my children loved them all in no particular order.
1. Cuddles
(OK I lied that is definitely #1) it is the earliest and nicest of play time
activities
2. Peek-A-Boo
now you see me now you don't
3. Like a
Teddy Bear (If you haven't already see more detail ...)
4. Tummy Time
5. Story Time
- Never to early to start we could not hold Scarlett for the first 4 days but
we began to bond because Mummy & Daddy would go read her a bed time story
every night she was in NICU
6. Baby Gym
Mats - It was a sad day they outgrew these they were great for them to start
concentrating with, then kicking & reaching hours of fun
7. VIP photo
album - We did pictures up of all the important people in their life into a
hard covered album to go through and share stories of babies love to study
pictures as they can begin to focus (I noticed reactions around 14-16 weeks)
8. Dance Baby
Dance swan around the room with baby on hip to your favorite tunes or own voice
9. Puppets as
we headed towards the 5-6 months they became fascinated with hand puppets I had
finger ones and would play things out using different voices with two on each
hand.
10. Laugh
Baby Laugh Games the sweetest sound you want to help develop this and it makes
you all feel happy. We spent time tickling, raspberry blowing and tongue
flicking(it's hilarious when they try to grab it)
Happy Play
Times :-)
