Flying Start @ Duchy Tummy Time!
Flying Start @ Duchy have been getting down on their tummies with the babies!
The staff recently have been to some training learning about British Heart Foundation physical development guidelines and NHS advised guidelines for getting babies onto their tummies!
Their are fantastic benefits of tummy time for babies, and the staff will be ensuring their non mobile babies get daily tummy time, exploring on their tummies, strengthening their neck, core and back muscles to use their heads to look around, their arms to start to push up and then encourage movement such as rolling, rocking back and forwards and even crawling!
The little one in the photos here enjoys playing peekaboo with some colourful material, and using her arms to lift and move it around!
Why not try at home and send a photo in to your nursery email so your keyworker can see what your baby has been doing at home too!
