- To help your baby sit, move their legs to form a V-shape, which helps them balance. Once they are in this position, place a toy in front of them to play with. Make sure you – and plenty of cushions – are nearby to provide support and rescue
- Place a toy in one of your baby’s hands and then another. They will soon learn to pass the toy from one hand to the other all by themselves
- Swinging your baby gently up and down and rocking them side to side will help improve their balance and perception of movement in preparation for crawling
- It’s way too early for standing up but help your baby to stand up and kick his legs by holding him under his armpits when you are playing together
- Move a toy just out of reach during daily tummy time and watch them try to reach it. If they can’t, move it a bit closer for an easy win so they don’t give up
- They will shriek with laughter at roly-poly toys that bounce back up when they are knocked over
