Encourage your child to reach for toys while sitting.
Make this play more difficult by placing objects
a little way in front of baby, so she has to reach
further forward to get them.
Ask your child to reach for a different toy each time
from a choice of 2 or 3, (for example, “where’s the
ball?”). Change the tone and emphasis of your
own voice to link to the movements and to help
your child to focus on the key words.
Activity Suggestions
Floor Sitting
Encourage your child to reach for toys while
sitting. At first, place toys within easy reach and
encourage grasping, moving from hand to hand,
banging together, and throwing.
While sitting place toys to either side, encouraging
reaching out to the side. All of these movements
help to develop neck and trunk muscles, eye-hand
co-ordination and weight shift.
To help your child learn new words, remember to
bring any toys you use into her line of vision before
you name them.
Hold a brightly coloured object 12-15” in front of
your child’s face. Move slowly in a semi-circle.
She will learn to turn her head in sitting, using
her hip and pelvic muscles to keep her steady
against gravity, and using trunk muscles to rotate
from one side to another.
To help your child learn new words, remember
to bring any toys you use into her line of vision
before you name them.
