Hey Baby!: A New Blog About Full of Infant Lesson Plans, Tips, and Ideas!

Recently, I became an infant teacher who is interested in more than just changing diapers and feeding time. I believe that even the youngest child can become more active and excited about their day through sensory activities and developmentally-appropriate early learning experiences.

The following are some of the blog posts that I have written (or will be writing) in order to inspire a greater awareness for the beauty and drool of  babyhood.

On Your Tummy: Tummy time is a great way to bond with a baby. Singing songs, moving their arms and legs for gross motor and muscle-building strength, and reading stories with bright, vivid illustrations allows babies to show interest in language even as a newborn! (A Future Post Worth Viewing!)

Come To Your Senses: Sensory Activities that involve water, cornmeal, or even colorful balls improve a babies visual memory, eye-hand coordination, and spatial awareness. Be sure to grab a plastic tub and fill it with a variety of interesting and baby-safe materials.

Please see my post: Come To Your Senses: Sensory Bin Ideas
