Wobble 'N' Roll
Batter's Up!
Milestone: Hand-Eye Coordination
Have big baseball dreams for your baby? Give your little slugger's hand-eye coordination skills a head start by building towers of blocks and letting him knock them down. He will soon realize the power he has when he reaches for an object and makes contact with it. As you stack, count the number of blocks out loud to add number recognition to your game.

Up Goes the Baby!
Milestone: Sitting Up
Starting around four months, neck and head control strengthen in preparation for sitting up (a milestone usually reached around six or seven months). Help your baby develop improved muscular control by making a game of pulling him up to sit: With your baby lying on his back, grasp his hands and gently pull him up to a sitting position. Make some funny faces or silly noises to help him bring his head forward to focus on you. Gently lower your baby back to his back and start all over again!
Face Time
Milestone: Lifting Head
Who says tummy time needs to be spent on the floor? When it's time for your baby to practice head control, lie on your back with your baby on top of you, tummy down, with her head on your chest. Talk and sing to her. She'll naturally want to pick up her head to see you. Take turns and have your partner play this game with Baby. It's great for bonding!
On a Roll
Milestone: Head and Neck Control
Add variety to tummy time by enlisting your yoga ball or therapy ball. Holding your baby securely, place him near the top of the ball (almost as though he's leaning against an adult's shoulder). Once he's comfortable, begin gently rolling the ball forward and backward, making sure to keep your grip in place. Do this in front of a mirror, and watch the look of delight as he catches sight of himself rolling along.

Touch and Go
Milestone: Crawling
To encourage your baby's crawling efforts, activate her natural sense of curiosity by laying down different textured materials to crawl over. Try placing in her path fun textures such as crinkly paper, soft faux fur and shiny tinfoil (tape the edges to prevent tears or sharp corners). As she crawls over each one, give her a cheer for discovering something new.
