Smart Start: Birth & Beyond
“Build that important adult-baby connection!" Starting babies and young tots off with playful songs and age-appropriate activities helps them move their limbs, get in tune with their senses, learn how their body works, and bond with a parent, sibling, or caregiver. Babies respond to a soothing voice, soft caresses, gentle rocking, a shaking rattle, tickling belly blows, soft taps and claps, songs about their care, and simple adult-assisted activities. These selections soothe and reassure, awaken early humor, boost early language skills, encourage gentle care, and give young ones a smart start. Perfect for new parents or infant child care settings. When do we begin building the adult-infant connection? We start NOW! Includes (1) Spanish selections. WINNER! 2008 Directors' Choice Award. WINNER! 2008 Parents' Choice Approved Award.
