Mommy, Can We Play?
Mimic Your Baby's Voice
It might seem silly, but try having a conversation with your baby in her language. That's right! Repeat her sounds while she talks to you. It'll be a ball for you both.
Play Peekaboo
This classic game never fails. Get your babe giggling with a fun game of peekaboo! It's a great one to play while you're making dinner, too!
Sing a Song
Just like reading, singing is so important for your baby's brain development. Sing your favorite song or make one up. You'll be a hit, no matter what!
Enjoy Bath Time
Most babes love bath time. They love to splash and feel the water on their skin. It's a great time for you to play and interact with them, too. Give your baby a bath in the sink, or take a shared bath. The skin-to-skin contact will be a great way to connect with your little love.
Explore New Textures
Help your little one explore new textures by doing a fun sensory activity with them. (Pinterest has LOADS of ideas if you need some!) Your baby will take such an interest in feeling some "new" things.
Take a Walk
Fresh air is good for everyone—babies included. Bond with your baby by taking a walk around your neighborhood or enjoying a hike in nature.
