Playtime: A Tummy Time Play Book for Babies
Publisher: Mama Makes Books
Newborn babies are attracted to high-contrast images and to movement.
This charming book is perfect for new babies. It's not only a tummy time book, but a finger wiggle book. Its concertina pages unfold so that it can be propped in front of a baby on their tummy.
Each page has a hole in it, and the adult can wiggle a finger through the holes. You can make a puppy wag its tail, or an elephant's trunk trumpet. This will encourage head turning and upper body strength, gross motor skills that will help with rolling and sitting in the future.
But there is enough for a baby to gaze at even without a moving finger. The simple, bright pictures have different patterns and contrasting colours. There is plenty to keep baby's brain busy.
