Yes, it’s true, you CAN play with your newborn! Playing with your newborn can be intimidating with a soft head, little motor skills, and floppy legs. However, we have 5 ways to play with your baby!
- Exercise Ball Tummy Time: Carefully supporting your baby on his stomach and gently rolling back and forth is an alternative to tummy time!
- Flying Baby: Putting your baby on his stomach on your legs is another alternative to tummy time! Just a heads up, don’t do this after eating (you or your baby)!
- Squats: Doing squats with your baby is a great way to get your exercise! The up and down motion is also really fun for your baby!
- Superman: Tummy Time is great, especially when it’s done in the air!
- Leg Bicycles: Doing leg bicycles with your baby will increase motor skills! (It also helps with relieving baby constipation!)
Playing with your infant can be fun and beneficial for you as well! Doing the alternatives to tummy time will give your baby variety and fun while developing motor skills!
Love,
