Be Active Kids and The Inspired Treehouse bring you information about infant play and development.  Babies are irresistibly cute and cuddly and they progress through child development milestones at an earth shattering pace. One day they are completely helpless and the next, they are trying to sit up on their own. You may think that this developmental progression just happens naturally and that there is very little you can do to stimulate your baby’s skills, but that is just not the case. Babies need gross motor, fine motor and sensory motor stimulation just like an older child. They need time on their tummy, time out of their “containers” (baby seats, strollers, carriers) to sprawl out and explore the floor, and they need your touch and your voice. Play is powerful, even in infancy and we are going to show you ways to stimulate all aspects of your baby’s development.
