🧸Tummy Time for Babies: Why It’s More Than Just Play Time 👶
Did you know that a few minutes of tummy time each day can help your baby build strength and confidence? Tummy time isn't just about play—it's a vital part of your baby's development! 💪
🍼 What Is Tummy Time?
Tummy time is when you place your baby on their stomach while they’re awake and supervised. It helps them strengthen their neck, shoulders, arms, and core—prepping them for crawling and more.
🌟 Why It Matters:
- 💡 Prevents flat head syndrome
- 💪 Builds muscles for rolling, sitting & crawling
- 🧠 Encourages curiosity and sensory learning
⏱️ When & How to Start
Begin as early as the first week—just 2-3 minutes a few times a day. Gradually increase time as your baby gets stronger and more comfortable.
🎉 Make It Fun:
- 🧸 Lay down with your baby and talk to them face-to-face
- 🎨 Use colorful toys or soft mirrors to catch their attention
- 🎵 Play soothing music or sing a favorite rhyme
Every little lift of the head is a victory—cheer them on! You’re helping your baby grow strong, one tummy minute at a time.
