Now, your baby can really control his movements. This simple game will definitely bring crisp laughter, when your baby can make his favorite toy fly "swing" into the air.
Suitable age: 10 - 18 months
Developmental skills : This 10-month-old game will help your baby understand the concept of cause and effect
Required preparation: A cardboard tube, hard plastic or other cylindrical object; a short square board or large rectangular children's book; a cute little toy; toy hammer or stick.
You can make this fun seesaw with your baby with things like cardboard, ice cream sticks ...
How to play:
Place the tube on a flat surface, preferably a smooth floor surface. Balance the board or book on the tube, like playing a seesaw. Place a cute toy at the bottom end of a book or board….
After the arrangement is complete, mom tell the baby: "Come on, let's see your teddy bear fly!". Then your baby will hit the upper part of the book or board with a hammer. Without a hammer the baby can simply use their fists. In case the baby can not perform the action, the mother should hold the baby's hand to work with the baby. Mom, please watch the baby's expression when the toy flies in the air and the baby will surely enjoy and be proud of his talent!
Note: If your baby wants to repeat this game many times, the mother can create more excitement and difficulty in the game, such as measuring the distance when the toy "lands".
5 sets of "bedside pillows" for children up to 2 Books are a great choice because the books contain many rich words, helping children develop their imagination. At the same time, it helps strengthen concentration and memory so that the baby can keep up with the story circuit.
Besides, to further develop this game, mom can place a cute item on both ends of a board or a book to do a seesaw, then show your baby how to balance it.
