Activity Two

Music and motions – singing action songs to keep your baby’s attention

Written by MFFY | Sep 9, 2022 10:22:21 AM

What to try 

  • Sing songs and say rhymes that have simple actions. 
  • Lie your baby on the floor or support them to sit where they can see your hands and face.  
  • Sing a song and do the actions as your baby watches.  
  • You can sing old favourites or make up your own simple actions for your favourite rhymes and songs.
