Baby Games | Developing Gross Motor Skills:

• Playing some games can help your child develop emotional,
physical & cognitive capabilities
• They are a great way of bonding with the child

Benefits:

• Develop eye muscles
• Develop gross motor skills

Playing with the baby:

1. When your baby is well fed & is in a playful mood, make him
lie down in front of you
2. Have a light colored yoyo, may be one which also makes a
sound. Dangle it above the baby’s head. You can also use a
rattle
3. Start with holding it still. Make some noise with it while you
hold it in place. The sound will attract the baby’s attention
4. When you know that your child has focussed on the toy, move
it very slowly to one side — and the other side now
5. Don’t move it too fast. This will get the baby over-stimulated
and he will lose his interest
6. Once he has focused, you can try left and right — up and
down movements. Then we go clock-wise and anti-clockwise
7. As you can see, these exercises are helping him develop his
eye and the ability to focus

Tips:

• Your baby may not give the desired response at first
• Span of baby’s attention may vary
• Be innovative
