Investigation & Inquiry

Create adorable foot print art with your baby using non-toxic paint. A fun sensory experience they'll love.

Set up a play tunnel or make one from boxes and crawl through it.

Babies love the sound and feel of crinkle paper. A simple sensory activity that promotes grip and listening.

Learn simple baby massage strokes that promote bonding, relaxation, and body awareness.

Shake egg shakers to the rhythm of favorite songs, building tempo awareness.

Make sounds (animal noises, vehicle sounds, nature) and encourage baby to copy them.
