Stack soft blocks or cups and let baby knock them down. Take turns stacking so baby learns about cause and effect. Celebrate the crash together!

Sing pat-a-cake and help baby clap along. This classic game builds rhythm, hand coordination, and social bonding. Baby may start trying to do it independently.

Offer a variety of safe finger foods in different textures and colors. Let baby practice their pincer grasp while exploring new tastes and textures.

Sit facing baby and roll a ball back and forth. This teaches turn-taking and cause-and-effect. Use a ball with a bell inside for extra engagement.
