As your baby grows, so does his interest in the world. He wants to explore his world. Here are some things he can do while playing on the floor. These are things that will help him learn and grow.
- Sit your baby on the floor and put a large empty plastic container in front of him. Hold a small ball over the container and drop it in. Do it a few times and then give him the ball.
- Encourage him to drop it into the container.
- Put your baby on the floor. Give him several soft balls to play with.
- Put your baby on the floor. Place several toys around him. Pick each one up and name it. Hand it to your baby. You can use a cup, a toy telephone, a doll, a spoon, a ball, a block, a stuffed animal or other toys.
