YOUR BABY'S NEXT SMALL STEP
 YOUR BABY'S NEXT
SMALL STEP:

HEAD CONTROL & EARLY FLOOR PLAY

If you’ve been wondering, “What the heck am I supposed to be doing during wake windows?”—you’re not alone. In those early weeks, just getting through the day with snacks and sanity intact is a win. But guess what? Your baby is already soaking up so much during those tiny pockets of “quiet alert time.”

Let’s make the most of them—with zero pressure and just one small step at a time.

Here’s what’s next for your baby:

Watch for a head turn preference.

If your baby always looks one way, gently guide them the other direction during play. It helps keep that sweet noggin nice and round!

Tummy time
(yep, already!). 

Just a few minutes a few times a day—on the floor or chest to chest. This is your baby’s first power move to build neck strength and prep for rolling later on.

Supported reclining = bonding + baby gains.

This chill position boosts head and trunk strength, early reaching, vision, and social development.

✨ Pro tip: Try just one activity per wake window. That’s all it takes in these early days.
