Dr. Sally Says…

The more personal and interactive attention you engage in with your baby, the more your baby will develop in a relaxed, self-confident way.

Activity 13

Peek-a-boo! I See You 

Age Range: Six to nine months

Area Being Developed: Social (Personality & Character)

Place a hand towel or a dishtowel in front of your baby’s face.  Hang it loosely so that your baby can breathe completely.  Then say, “Where is baby?‘  Immediately take the towel away and say, “Here you are!”  You can also do this same activity with “Where is Mommy, where is Daddy, where is brother, etc.”  Repeat the activity as often as you and your baby continue to enjoy it.
