Baby Development
Baby development is all about playing and
bonding
Time flies the moment you bring your newborn home and watch how quickly
the small and helpless little baby grows and develops. It can sometimes be a challenge to keep track of what they can do, should do and what you need to do to help your
baby reach
critical developmental milestones.
At Ape to Zebra we are committed to provide you with
relevant information with regards to your baby and child's developmental milestones as well as
information on the developmental skills targeted by the educational toys in our
store, in order to help you
choose fun baby toys that inspire, stimulate and encourage developing minds.
The
responsibility of providing a small child with a nourishing and loving environment that will promote growth and development while laying the foundation this child is going to build his
or her life on is definitely the most important job anyone can ever have. It seems challenging and some days it is. But it
can also be very rewarding. Educate yourself about baby and child development and always give your
child an ear that actually listens, a word that encourages and praise
and a firm but loving hand to guide your children by and lot's of hugs
and kisses. With these few tools you're off to a flying start an well on your way to a
successful parenting experience. Nothing can replace the
warm, loving and dependable relationship your baby build with his or her caregivers in early infancy.
Since babies develop at an amazing pace, you will find that activities (and sometimes
baby toys) may need to be changed and adapted on a monthly
(and in the beginning even on a weekly) basis.
As you read articles and books on baby development and find activities and
baby toys to enjoy with your baby, you need to remember that every baby develops differently. You will be able to tell very quickly after introducing
a new activity or baby toy if your baby is ready for it or not. If your baby is not ready for an activity - leave it and try it a few weeks later keeping in mind that babies also need to be challenged to grow (just like us).
Once you baby has mastered something - try introducing an activity or toy that you know
is a bit more challenging. It is important that you and your baby do not get frustrated with new activities or toys. The point is for both of you to have
fun!
If your baby gets frustrated – change to another activity you know she will enjoy and try the new activity later.
Another tip is to introduce new activities/concepts when your baby is fresh and responsive.
Always respect your child’s preferences and try not to push him to do something he is not ready to do.
Remember that newborns and babies also have preferences. It is important for
your baby's development and self esteem that you provide her with
choices whenever you have the opportunity to do so. She may not understand this at first but will realize soon enough
she can make decisions for herself.
As infants grow they are constantly learning about themselves and their world through their five senses – seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and smelling. Stimulation of the five senses happens through play and interaction with
the people and objects around them. It is important to play with your
baby throughout the day by offering him ample opportunity for stimulation.
Babies build brain connections at a rapid pace. The more connections your baby can build
earlier, the better. Brain connections are made every time you
stimulate one of the senses. Even if you are just talking to your baby,
touching your baby, dancing with your baby, you are helping your baby
creating invaluable connections. You don't have to do extravagant things
or go out of your way to help your baby develop. Even wearing your
baby, being able to talk and touch your baby while you go about your
daily tasks can make an enormous difference in your baby's life and
development. Allow your baby to explore objects with different
properties. On its own hot or cold can be very abstract but let
your baby feel something hot and something cold and suddenly the whole
lesson makes a lot more sense. Put different textures in your
baby's hands and let them explore it. Let them explore (safe) objects with
their mouths and provide them with the opportunity to taste and smell
different things.
Ape to Zebra focuses on safe baby toys that are
high quality, educational and developmentally appropriate. We have a big selection of
quality European Baby Toys by Manufacturers synonymous with quality like
