How to play with your newborn
It does not matter if you're the parent of a baby or an extended family member, but it is important to learn how to play and interact with them. It can also be a great way to bond with your baby and spend quality time together!
How to entertain your newborn
The first rule of play is to meet your baby at their level. Do not expect your baby's ability to grasp, pick up or grasp new toys. Make the toys interactive for your baby.
One of the best ways to entertain a newborn is to put them on their belly and move around with them. This strengthens their neck muscles so they are ready to roll over. They can also strengthen their arm and leg muscles. This will come in handy as they learn to walk.
Tummy Time for Newborns
Your newborn's stomach is an excellent place to strengthen their arms and legs. It also promotes sensory stimulation throughout their body, and teaches them how to hold their head upright.
Tummy time is also a great way to get them used to lying down, which will help when they learn to crawl!
To do tummy time, place an object 6-12 inches in front of your newborn's face and very slowly move it an inch or two in the direction that they are looking. This will help your baby learn to visually track moving objects (called visual tracking).
Make facial expressions
Babies love to watch and copy their parents' facial movements. Babies love to stick out their tongues and raise their eyebrows. This is a great technique to help teach them facial expressions, and to strengthen their facial muscles.
Books
Children will enjoy a book with pictures of familiar pets, animals and people. Together, look through the book and name every picture.
Massage
Massage is a great activity for your baby. Massaging your baby's neck, shoulders, and neck gently using light pressure or motion is a great way to get them moving. This stimulates circulation and digestion.
Music and songs
Research has shown that newborns are able to recognize music that they were exposed in the womb. Play some of the songs that they heard in the womb to engage their brains and bodies.
Face Time
The most pleasurable form of play for a newborn is face time with their parent or caregiver. They look for faces that have open eyes, are connected to the person they play with, smile, and respond to their actions.
They love to hear sounds that are familiar, like cries from babies or your own voice.
A great way to entertain a baby is singing. Sing simple nursery songs, or have a chat about the meaning of the songs.
