Your seven-month-old loves to play. Here are some games you can play with him:
Squeeze one of your baby's toys to make it squeak. Then hide it under a blanket while he is watching you. Let him try to find it.
Bang two toys or objects together in front of your baby. Then let him try it, too.
Give your baby one end of a towel or scarf and you take the other. Gently pull on your end.
Cut out large, colorful pictures of objects from magazines. Paste the pictures on paper to make a book for your baby. Sit your baby on your lap and talk to him about each picture.
Let your baby play with musical toys, such as bells. Make sure that none of the parts can come loose.
