You Will Need:
One or two scarves of different textures and colors
Directions:
While your baby is happy and playful, lay him on his back on the floor or bed and stand or sit next to him. Take one of the scarves and wave it over your baby’s body. Hold the scarf over the baby within his reach and encourage him to reach up for it. Also hold it off to the side and see if he can turn his body toward it. “Where’s Mary? Peek-a-boo, there you are. Whee, it’s soft. Can you reach it? Stretch, that’s it. Yeah.”
Tip:
Let your baby get used to the feel of the scarf before you put it over his face and pick up on his cues if he doesn’t seem to like it over his face. If he’s not interested in peek-a-boo continue holding it over his body instead.
