💚DID YOU KNOW??
💛During your baby’s first year their brain absorbs, processes and interprets information at a phenomenal rate.

💚So, whilst it might sound a bit advanced to be teaching your tiny baby to count, it’s the opportune time for them to start learning about numbers, because they are taking in so much information.

💛Our Founder, and leading parenting expert, Dr Lin Day advises that “there are many opportunities to introduce babies to the sounds of numbers from an early age”.

💚These include:

-Singing nursery rhymes such as 1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive.
-Counting blocks as you stack them.
-Putting pegs into a pegboard and counting as you go.
-Counting as you go up and down the stairs at home.
-Reading stories that include numbers such as “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” or “Three Little Pigs”

💛Although you will likely be unable to tell what your baby is taking in and understanding at such an early age, giving babies the opportunity to see maths through play helps them to build interest for future learning.

💚They also gain an understanding of order, for example knowing that two comes after one and that four comes after three and so on.

☀️ It’s our Sizzling Summer Carnival in class this week to round off our Summer Term in tropical style!
💃 Bright colours, joyful music and even a carnival salsa will delight all of your babies this week!

⚽️ COMPETITION TIME!
🏆 To celebrate England being in the final of the Euros tonight I’m giving away one of our super popular bounce balls. These are fab for helping babies develop physically - from tummy time for tinies to kicking them along with our first steps - and we regularly use them as part of our class activities.
🥇 All you have to do is predict the score tonight! All correct answers will be put in a draw to win a bounce ball!!
🥅 On your marks, get set, go! 😗

12/07/2024

🇫🇷Nope, I didn’t take a single picture this week!!! 🤣
🇫🇷But I did have a wonderful time in France with all my babies - I have never seen so many Breton t-shirts, and that was just the mummies!
🇫🇷Singing, playing our instruments, rowing and talking about language development, it’s been a fantastic week with you all mes enfants!
🇫🇷Let’s see any photos you took, I would love to see them! Au revoir et bon weekend 😘

09/07/2024

🍁It already feels like Autumn so I’m spending a drizzly afternoon planning!
🍁If you’re currently attending our Summer Term or are booked in for a Summer Special you’ll have an email from me this afternoon. Everyone on a waitlist I’ll be in touch at the weekend! I’m already excited for some of the fabulous themes we have coming up!!!!!

08/07/2024

💚When will my baby walk?

💛The short answer is when they are ready! Babies generally have their own timetables that can’t be rushed.

💚Some babies walk as early as 8 months and others as late as 2 years, however most take their first steps towards the end of their first year.

💛Premature babies generally walk later than full term babies of the same age because this skill is usually achieved at the age they would have been, had they been born at term and sometimes later.

💚If your baby isn’t yet walking and you are concerned, talk to your health visitor who will likely be able to reassure you.

💛You can also read more about how your baby will learn to walk and the steps you can take to encourage them to take their first steps in our latest blog: https://www.babysensory.com/firststepsforbaby

🇫🇷 Ooh la la, c’est notre semaine Francaise!!
🇫🇷It’s French week at Baby Sensory this week and we will be taking a little trip to France - singing some French songs and doing the can can! Feel free to dress your babies for the theme...think red, white and blue, stripy jumpers, berets...???
🇫🇷 I’ll be welcoming some new faces to Baby Sensory with our BRAND NEW Monday 1.45pm class which still has spaces left if you fancy joining us!
🇫🇷All together now... “Disons bonjour au soleil”

06/07/2024

💚EXTRA CLASS ADDED!!
💛All the Summer Term classes are fully booked but I have space for the next 2 weeks on Mondays at 12.45pm at Holy Cross in Lichfield.
💚This class is for babies under 7 months and most of those booked in already are brand new to Baby Sensory so if you fancy starting your Baby Sensory journey with a new arrival this is the perfect place for you!!
💛The 2 week “mini term” costs £15 and can be booked via the website (link in bio)
💚Our themes will be French Week 🇫🇷 and Summer Carnival!!🎪 Such lovely Summery fun!!!

04/07/2024

💚It’s our Olympic week and we are using these for a couple of our events! There are endless games you can play with our Baby Sensory bounce balls!

💛Have fun rolling the ball across the floor to encourage your baby to move, wriggle, crawl or run towards it.

💚And as your baby grows, show them how to bounce or throw the ball to foster imaginative thinking.

💛These soft and pliable bounce balls are ideal for encouraging mobility skills and exercise, which in turn promotes brain and whole body development.

Buy yours today at www.babysensoryshop.co.uk or pick one up from me in class to save yourself postage!

03/07/2024

💚My wise thought of the day is one I’ve seen in various memes along the lines of “you’ll never know the last time they need you to pick them up/want you to take them to the swings” etc.
💛I offered my eldest a day out to celebrate the end of his GSCEs and no one was more surprised than me when he asked to go to the Sea Life Centre that he remembered so fondly from his childhood trips. This was probably the last time we will go here together and it was such a special trip for that reason. Every other day I’m just an embarrassing mum!!!
💚Photos of his first trip there November 2008 vs today.

01/07/2024

💛Here’s some of our most recent Hello Baby Massage course who graduated today. 7 weeks of workshops, yoga, reflexology, massage and sensory fun! Oh, and cake!!
💚I’ve loved sharing this course with you all and your amazing babies, and mostly loving that you’re already planning more get togethers in the summer!

💚A ROUND OF APPLAUSE PLEASE!💚

We always give our babies a clap after each activity. Did you know that babies gain emotional satisfaction from clapping and patting games, which in turn develop listening skills, a sense of rhythm and hand extension, which is important for later crawling?

Clapping and patting exerts pressure on the palms of the hands, which builds muscle strength and endurance, and leads on to greater flexibility of the fingers and thumb.

16/06/2024

⭐️ It’s “Sparkles” week at Baby Sensory this week with some gorgeous lights, sparkly pom-poms and reflective textures too!!
💛At Hello Baby Massage it’s “Chests and tummies” with some tips for tummy time, some wonderful animals and a lovely massage to help with colic and digestions!
🥁 I’ll have my shop table with me all week - it’s fully stocked with wave drums, shakers, bells, dance ribbons, books and puppets!!!! You can purchase things in cash or by bank transfer.

14/06/2024

💚There has been so much rhythm in the room this week, moving, shaking and dancing to the bears of music from all the around the world.
💛Swipe to see what one of my fabulous mummies has created at home inspired by our texture boards… hoping to see more of your creations over the rainy weekend!
💚As always share your photos on our Facebook thread of by tagging me in your Instagram story.
💛Happy weekend everyone!!!!
💚(I’m away this weekend so apologies for any slow replies!!

💛Want to create healthy habits now?

💚As parents we only want what’s best for our baby or child. But sometimes that’s difficult when life is busy.

💛The more healthy habits we can create the better, because once things become a habit we are more likely to stick to them AND the more likely our babies and children are to copy them too.

💚It’s not just eating healthily that will support the development of our babies...there are lots of other things too.

💛Check out our latest blog to find out how you can best support the development of your baby and create healthy habits that last a lifetime: https://www.babysensory.com/brainfood
