A. At six months, your baby is at a great stage for introducing new activities that promote development and exploration. Here are some activities you can start: 1. Tummy Time: Continue tummy time to strengthen your baby’s neck, shoulders, and arm muscles. Try placing toys within reach to encourage reaching and rolling. 2. Sit and Play: Help your baby practice sitting with support. You can surround them with soft toys or place cushions around to make it safe. 3. Interactive Play: Use toys like rattles, soft blocks, or teething rings to encourage grabbing and exploring different textures and sounds. 4. Sensory Play: Offer a variety of sensory experiences by letting your baby explore objects with different textures, like soft fabrics, rubber toys, or textured balls. You can also let them play with water during bath time. 5. Peek-a-Boo: This classic game is perfect at this age. It helps your baby develop social interaction and understand object permanence. 6. Mirror Play: Babies love looking at themselves in the mirror. Sit with your baby in front of a mirror and encourage them to look at their reflection, which helps with self-awareness. 7. Storytime and Songs: Reading to your baby or singing songs with hand movements and rhymes stimulates language development and bonding. 8. Introduce Solids: You can now start offering solid foods if you haven’t already. Let your baby explore different tastes and textures of food, which is an exciting sensory experience. 9. Crawling Encouragement: Place toys a little out of reach to motivate your baby to move, wiggle, or crawl toward them. This helps strengthen their motor skills. 10. Playdates or Social Time: If possible, allow your baby to interact with other babies or family members. Social interactions at this age are crucial for emotional and social development. These activities will help support your baby’s physical, cognitive, and emotional development while creating fun bonding moments!
