Game 2. Toys for a baby in 2 months

Games in "tracking" help to develop the baby from the first month of life. Move 20-25 cm closer to the baby's face. When he "catches" you with his gaze, slowly move to the left, then to the right. By the end of the first month, the baby will have learned to turn his head. When the baby has mastered this game, you can offer him a small colored toy.

Often mothers notice that the baby is looking past the toy or is fixed only on the face. Our faces are endowed with facial expressions. It is she who attracts the baby. That is why children love to look at adults for a long time when they say something. The daily development of a child through play is very important. Smile, be surprised, show your child that you are also very involved in his game. Talk to your child and tell him about everything you do.

When the baby is able to hold the hands in front of his face, he will look at them for a long time, surprised. He will be even more surprised when he realizes that it is he who makes them move. Gradually, the baby will learn to coordinate the movements of the hands and eyes.

Game 4. Hanging toys on a string

Take the string, pull it at a height of 10-15 cm from the baby's chest in a crib or stroller. Hang large plastic beads, multi-colored pieces of different fabrics, a light bell, something rustling on a string. At first, the baby will accidentally touch objects and enjoy their sounds. Gradually, he will realize that toys make a sound when he touches them. By the end of 3 months, the baby will be consciously trying to catch toys.

Grasp the rope with one hand. With the other, lift the baby under the butt so that his feet do not touch the diaper. Bring the ball to the feet. The crumb will push the ball away when it touches it.

Don't miss the new an article about baby's sleep

At 3 months of life, the reflex of newborns to push everything that the legs touch, fades away. Now the child will specifically knock on the ball.

Stimulate the baby to fix his gaze on moving and stationary objects, encourage longer concentration on the subject. Take in hand bright ball; when the child catches his eye, start moving the ball from left to right, up and down. At the same time, say: “Where is the ball? Look, there he is! "

Use toys that make different sounds actively. Draw the baby's attention by moving the sounding toys. Jingle the toy from the left, right, top and bottom. Ask: “Where is the ringing? Ding Ding! Where now?"

Allow the baby to make as many groping movements as possible with his hands. At the same time, the child must see the object he is feeling. To do this, put an object in the hand of the crumbs and draw his attention to this object. The shape, size, texture of such items should be varied, but easy to grasp. Pronounce the sounds that you heard from the baby: "abu", "agu", "boo-boo", "ah-ah", "oh-oh", "ha-ha", etc.

Peekaboo"

Throw a scarf over your head, ask: “Where is mom? Where did mom hide? Find Mom! " Help the kid, if he doesn’t succeed, open up yourself and be sure to praise. Now throw a handkerchief over the child, as if he hid himself. “Where is my Svyatoslav? There is no Svyatoslav. Where did he run away? " Take off your handkerchief: "Ah-ah, that's where my Svyatoslav is!" Continue to play with the baby while he is interested, coming up with different options of this game.

Developmentmovements baby

At this age, the child's movements are still imperfect: the muscles are just being freed from hypertonicity. And so the baby timidly and awkwardly begins to move the arms. Take advantage of this when practicing with him.

Encourage any child's desire to move. Place a bright toy on the side of the baby so that it attracts his attention, and help the baby reaching out to her to gently roll over from his back to his stomach.

Game "Funny hoops"

Hoop the bells or bells to the hoop. Hang them on a ribbon above the crib. Swing the hoop so that your child can hear the bell ringing and notice the fun hanging. Talk to your baby, stroke his hands and direct them towards the toy. Gradually, the baby will learn how to grab the bells and ring. Grip training will help you cope with hypertonicity and open your palm, because it is also a massage.

To make the palm open faster, it is necessary to knead and massage the baby's fingers more often. This is best done in game form... In addition to the movement of the hands, it is necessary to pay attention to the development of locomotor (joint movements of the whole body).

On 3 month the infant learns to raise his head high by lying on his stomach and resting on his forearms. This skill can be trained by raising and lowering the attractive toy high in front of the baby's face.

When the baby is awake in the prone position, show him something very interesting, for example, a tumbler: the attention of the baby will attract bright color, nice sound. And most importantly, her smiling face. Do not forget that cervical muscles the child is still weak, and he cannot hold his head for a long time, therefore the duration of the training should not exceed 1-1.5 minutes. Also, make sure that the baby is symmetrically resting on both elbows.

TO 3 month the infant, if held under the armpits, rests firmly with his feet against hard surface... We offer you a game that combines support workout and sole massage.

The exercise " Big feet walked along the road "

You will need: tumbler, baby cream, rug with a rough surface. Pat your baby's legs, including the feet. Apply cream to the cover of the changing table and pour in some water. Take the baby under the arms and rest your feet on the table. Reading the child of a rhyme, perform sliding movements on a smooth surface.

• Big feet
• Walking along the road:
• Top-top-top,
• Top-top-top.
• Little feet
• We ran along the path:
• Top-top-top,
• Top-top-top.

Now lay a rug with a rough surface and, as you read the rhyme, follow the sliding steps. Observe your child's behavior carefully, make sure that he is not in pain, and he gladly accepts your actions. At the end of the game, rub the tumbler with the baby's legs.

For crawling training, place the toy at a distance from your child so that he cannot grab it. Help your baby get closer to her by placing your palm to the soles of your feet so that he can rest and push off.

"Grab"

Aged from two to three months old in a baby there are groping movements. From this moment on, the centers of the tactile analyzer of the cerebral hemispheres are switched on. Finger movements have special meaning as they have a huge impact on the development of higher nervous activity.

Play with the baby as follows: a ball with a diameter of 2-2.5 cm is inserted into an open infant palm, achieving a reflex grasping. Balls are selected, different in weight, material (plastic, wooden, etc.), homemade cloth, from a smooth or terry cloth, hard and soft.

The balls, tied on a ribbon, go down into the baby's palm from above. This exercise gives the child relative independence by practicing grasping. Sipping the ball by the ribbon, while not removing it from the palm of the crumbs, the adult stimulates a stronger grasping.

A similar exercise can be performed with sticks (section diameter 1-1.5 cm, length 25 cm). Chopsticks are round, smooth, ribbed. An adult places a stick in one or both of the child's handles. Holding the stick in the middle, pulls it towards you, stimulating a stronger grip.

It is good to give inserts in the form of small rollers of oilcloth, terry, chintz fabric. They stimulate hand movements (grasping, squeezing), develop tactile sensitivity of the palm.

Sometimes parents get too carried away with newfangled methods of development, and completely forget about the huge legacy that our ancestors left us. Why invent a bicycle? If it has already been created.

Look what I see

Audio recordings

Record your baby's babbling on tape. Start playback and observe its reaction. Does the baby care about these sounds? Does he start answering the tape recorder? If your child enjoys recordings like this, try playing different sounds. For example, the sounds of nature. This will provide great language features in the future.

Communication through conversation

Talk to your baby, starting with short sentences like "What a wonderful day today." When the baby reacts with some babbling, stop talking and look into his eyes, answer him with a smile and nod. The kid will understand so that they understand him, listen. Talk further and pause. This will help the child know that it's his turn to babble and you like it. Thus, the child's speech develops.

Read lips

At three months old, the child utters a huge number of sounds. By responding to his babbling, you encourage him to make new sounds. Repeating after him what he says, put his finger to your lips. Let him feel their movement and the air coming out of his mouth as he speaks. Place your fingers on his lips and encourage him to make more sounds.

Ba-ba-ba

Sing any song, replacing all words with one syllable. For these purposes, choose the syllable that your child uses most often. For example, "ma" or "ba".

When you get the baby's attention, move the toy aside so that the baby follows it with his eyes and turns his whole body towards it. Do this several times so that the baby turns to follow the toy. Constant exercise of the muscles in the back and abdomen strengthens them and makes them elastic.

Let's dance

Hold the baby firmly with your mice and do a few dance moves. Try dancing to your favorite song or rhyme.

Hello dear readers! We figured out how it happens. If you haven't read this information yet, be sure to check out the previous article. Well, today let's discuss games with a 3 month old baby.

It is easy to develop a child who wants to develop. And in order for the baby to have such a desire, parents need to approach the issue of the game responsibly and conduct exercises and classes with the baby regularly and in a variety of ways.

A crumb will not even notice that he is being taught something if the game is built correctly and fun. Vivid emotions accompanying the game will help to capture the right moments development in memory. Let's go directly to the games.

Finger games still take the main place in your schedule, there are not many of them. In addition, stimulation of the brain centers is necessary for comprehensive development baby. And they, in turn, will push to acquire new skills through the motor and speech parts of the brain.

Physical activity has essential to expand knowledge about the world around them, therefore gymnastics and massage are of paramount importance for the child.

Let's push back. Place the baby on his tummy and place your palms under his feet. The child reflexively rests on them and makes an attempt to push off and straighten his knees. it useful exercise develops the muscles of the legs and back, and also contributes to the development of a sense of oneself in space.

We walk together. Turn the baby to face you, take him under the armpits and place him vertically, slightly tilting the body forward. The child's reflex walking mechanism will work, he will be able to take several steps on a hard surface. But you should not get carried away with this game, it is too early for the baby to give such a load on the spine. You can do this exercise every couple of days. Soon this reflex will fade away, and the child will learn new movements.

Here are the ships sailing. It is helpful to keep your baby in a prone position more often, not only on the changing table or in the crib. You can put the baby on your lap and make "swimming" movements back and forth. Or depict a boat in suspension, forcing the child's body to float in the space of the room. The game is useful for all muscle groups and helps to see the world from a completely different perspective.

Games for the development of thinking and speech they form the child's ideas about the properties of objects, help in establishing connections between images and actions, and enrich a passive vocabulary.

Catch-up. Use objects from your environment to play. For example, a clear plastic bottle is a great solution. Pour cereal into it, which will publish loud noise when moving the bottle. Place your baby on the floor on his tummy with a bottle in front of him. Rock it so the baby can hear the sound.

Pay attention to the fact that the bottle can speak loudly. Roll the bottle away from the child and help him catch up with her by placing your palms under his feet. The kid will learn to compare the result of his labors: he reached out - pushed - made a sound.

Who is calling? Bell games have always been interesting for children. But the bell is also a good educational toy. It can be attached to the cuffs and worn on the baby's wrist. By showing your child several times that the bell is ringing when the toddler moves the handle, we will not only generate interest in the toy, but also help develop hand coordination and thinking.

Or, in front of the child's eyes, first ring, and then hide the bell and ring again. The child will look for where the ringing is coming from. The exercise stimulates the development of hearing well and forms the idea that objects can disappear and appear, but the sound remains.

Thinking and speech are inextricably linked, it is impossible to develop thinking, setting aside the formation of speech skills.

Zhu-zhu-zhu, I'll tell you. To help your baby learn to pronounce more sounds, practice with him songs with repeating sounds or syllables. For example, this one.

I'll tell you quietly

Like a bee sings zhu-zhu.

And then I'll show you

I will fly and hum.

You can come up with similar repeat songs yourself. The child will have a lot of fun listening to them from you, and soon he will learn to pronounce familiar syllables himself.

Heart-to-heart conversations. Toddlers love to be talked to. And if the conversation is also interesting, then it is doubly pleasant. Children often enjoy whispering. He calms them down and shows that there is another type of conversation - quiet. You can sing a familiar song to your baby in a whisper. He will surely like it new variant sounding.

All games for children of the first year of life are aimed at developing sensory functions, which include perception, sensation, feeling. Games in front of the mirror have a positive effect on the psyche and mood of the baby. You can begin to acquaint your child with reflection as early as the age of 3 months.

Who is this? Walk up to the mirror with your baby and show him different moods and emotions on your face. Let the baby just watch your reflections with him. When he realizes that you and him are in the mirror, games with reflection will become his favorite.

Of course, the selection of games does not end there, you probably use these and many other games to develop your crumbs at home. The main thing is not to overdo it with frequency. The kid gets tired quickly and sometimes favourite hobby- lie alone with your palms and rattles.

And of course the video

During the period of 3 months, when you talk to your baby, he not only hums in response, but also smiles at you, constantly waving his arms and legs in order to attract even more attention to himself. This phenomenon is called the revitalization complex. It is the most important stage in the development of a child. Thus, the baby communicates that he is pleased or satisfied with communication with him and expects the caress or play that he needs.

The child is improving in the art of toothless smiles and begins to try them already on all adults in sight. The child attracts the attention of adults with the help of lively and sincere laughter.

The child is awake for about 4-5 hours a day, now he can fix objects with his gaze for several minutes, he raises not only his head, but also his shoulders and lies, leaning on his forearms. The child will try with all his might to roll over onto his stomach, and sometimes he manages to make a half-turn - that is, turn from back to side. The kid tries to roll from one end of the crib to the other, fingering with arms and legs at the same time, using all parts of the body. And this is, although the simplest, but the skills of movement!

When you take the baby under the armpits, he already rests on his legs, bending them into hip joints springing them. And although he still cannot resist, he rests on and strengthens his legs. And this is important for his development, as he will soon begin to crawl.

Even if the baby lies on its back, it will not remain idle. He begins to rhythmically swing his arms and legs, as the child trains before the upcoming hikes and races. The child's hands are still living their own lives, he has already begun to pay attention to them. However, learning how to manage them is not so easy. The kid is already trying not only to reach out with the handle to the hanging rattle, but to touch it so that it makes a sound. However, now, before grabbing the object, the child looks at it for a long time, as if weighing whether the object is worth his efforts.

The kid continues to walk enthusiastically, mastering new sounds, for example "ay", "hey". Tell your child a few affectionate words, wait for his smile and shut up when the child “buzzes” (you have to be patient, it usually takes a few minutes for the child to “think about what he heard”), say something else and again wait patiently for an answer. Gradually, the child will learn to "maintain a conversation" - and the bond between you will become even stronger. Most likely, several days will pass, and during the next conversation you will hear funny laugh your child.

Games and toys for a 3 month old baby

The crumb needs the attention of parents and loved ones. He likes it when mom and dad take him in their arms, talk and communicate with him, talk about what is happening around him, read books.

Now, while awake, the kid not only contemplates, but explores the world around him, using his increased capabilities, which he is ready to happily realize in the game.

It is hardly possible now to say for sure which of the games develops exactly the vision, which hearing, etc. Games for children of this age are games for the complex development of a baby. And the more you play with it, the more varied your games are, the better your baby will develop.

Continue with the crumb and add new ones to them.

1. Conventional air balloons contribute to the development of vision and coordination of movements. Tie the ball to the baby's hand so that, by moving the hand, the child watches his movement and, over time, can establish a relationship between the movement of the hand and the ball.
2. Secure the mobile at a distance of 15–20 cm from the child's eyes. Do not hang a lot of toys on your mobile - 2-3 is enough. And do not forget to change toys after 4–5 days, because the baby needs new "objects" of research.
3. Hang a rattle over the crib (preferably at a distance of about 45 cm from the eyes), which the child can move with his hand, trying to grab, accidentally touch. It is very important for a baby to understand that when he hits the rattle, he moves it, and this becomes the cause of the noise.
4. The bells are hung from a mobile phone or over a baby's bed so that he can reach them with his hands. By the end of the 3rd month of life, the baby will understand that by touching the toy, he makes it sound.
5. Put a bright rag bracelet with a bell, fastened with Velcro on your child's wrist. This toy promotes the development of hand coordination and the development of hearing. Wear the bracelet alternately on your right or left hand.
6. Take the baby in your arms, let him touch the whirligig. Then unwind it and, after it starts humming, say: "Listen to how the whirligig is singing!"
7. While playing with the tumbler, show your baby how it sways. Hearing a melodic ringing, smile and say: “Did you hear?”, Over time the baby will be able to play on his own.
