What you need
What to do
- Place the mirror on the floor.
- Lie your baby on their tummy.
- Lie next to them and hold the mirror so when they lift their head, they can see their reflection.
- Smile, talk about and respond to what your baby does.
- Give them time to look at their reflection.
- Notice when they are ready to finish tummy time and pick them up.
Good to know
If your baby is unsure about tummy time, using a mirror might encourage them to spend a little more time on their front.
