-
Step 1
Hand him a pot upside down. See if he'll turn it over. He may begin to discover the difference between right side up and upside down.
-
Step 2
Put a hat on his head while he's sitting in front of the mirror. He'll enjoy watching his reflection as he pulls the hat off his head.
-
Step 3
Put a piece of transparent tape on the back of his hand. Peeling it off will be an interesting challenge.
-
Step 4
Read together: Choose a sturdy book with pictures of familiar things. As you turn the pages, let him point and touch the pictures.
-
Step 5
Make a box of materials for him to feel so he can learn about textures. Include rough materials as well as smooth ones: a linoleum square, a playing card, a large rubber sink stopper, a square of velvet or satin, a sponge.
-
Step 6
Dance with your baby to quiet music before putting him to bed. He'll be soothed, and he'll like cuddling before falling asleep.
