 Playtime
~ Newborn
You are your baby's first and best "toy". Being with you
is pleasurable--looking at your face, feeling your warmth and comfort,
hearing your voice, and recognizing your scent are all opportunities
for your baby to get to know you. So play lots together and enjoy
getting acquainted.
A few simple toys are all you need during these first months as your
baby begins to focus and notice the world around her. A rattle, some
plastic rings, a hanging mobile--all begin to attract her attention.
After
a few months, you'll be able to play more actively with your baby.
Try dancing in a circle to your favorite music. Or move her gently
through the air like an airplane. Find ways of moving together that
you both enjoy.
