Floor play is essential for your baby's development, offering them a safe space to explore and build motor skills. Use a soft, clean mat or carpet to cushion any falls and ensure the area is free from small objects that could pose a choking hazard.
Introduce colorful, textured toys that stimulate their senses and encourage exploration. Items like soft blocks, rattles, and sensory balls are great for engaging their curiosity. Rotate toys regularly to keep playtime fresh and exciting.
Always supervise your baby during floor play to ensure they’re safe from small objects or sharp edges. Baby-proofing the area, such as covering electrical outlets and securing furniture, adds extra peace of mind while they play.
Encourage tummy time to strengthen their neck, back, and shoulder muscles. This important activity supports key motor skills like rolling over, crawling, and eventually sitting up on their own.
