Why It’s Important:
Tummy time helps babies develop strong neck, shoulder, and arm muscles, which are essential for rolling, sitting, and crawling. It also prevents flat spots on the head.
Tips for Success:
– Start tummy time early, just a few minutes at a time.
– Place your baby on a firm, safe surface while you stay close.
– Make it fun by getting down on the floor with them.
Activity:
Lay your baby on a blanket and place a colorful toy just out of reach. Encourage them to lift their head and reach for it, building neck and arm strength.
