Why You Should Watch

What do babies think about? It’s one of the questions uppermost in most parents’ minds as they gaze at the little person in front of them. The fact is that babies not only discover new things every day, but they also constantly rediscover things they’ve already been introduced to, so they have a lot on their minds. Seeing for yourself how a baby interacts with, for example, a rattle or mobile, is to gain a deeper understanding of the workings of your child’s development, particularly their short-term memory development. This insight will help you empathize with your baby and reduce any stress you might be feeling or worries you might have about how your parenting actions affect your newborn. Because babies learn as they explore, you can help your child along by stimulating their senses appropriately through introducing them to new sights and sounds.

What you'll see from a baby's eye view:

  • How new objects and experiences stimulate a child’s development
  • How your voice affects your baby’s mood
  • How the short attention span of your child manifests itself
  • Why, from a baby’s viewpoint, it’s all “me, me, me!“
  • Why babies REALLY cry

What you’ll discover:

  • Parenting secrets for stimulating your child’s development
  • How you can help your baby get used to your voice
  • How to help your baby learn more about their world
  • How your child’s “motor memory” works
  • Parenting tips for calming your child

Babies are naturally curious about their new world, and getting true insight into their world is the best way to understand what’s going on in that rapidly developing brain. As well as helping your little one develop at their own, unique pace, you can put your own mind at ease about what’s going on in their increasingly active minds.
