3. Place your child sideways across your leg.
Have some toys within reach in front of
him on the right and left sides. Encourage
him to reach for a toy, first with one arm,
then the other.
m o v e m e n t 91
Try to
find
your toy,
Ahmed.
Here’s your
favorite
shaker, Diego.
Can you come
and get it?
4. If your child drags his stomach as he
starts to crawl, support his stomach
with your hands or with a towel.
As he moves toward a toy, pull the
towel up slightly on one side, then
the other, so that he learns to shift
his weight from side to side. As he
becomes more able, give him less
support.
Come get
your rattle,
Kontie.
5. Once your child can stay in a crawl
position on his hands and knees
without help, encourage him to
reach for a toy. Try to keep him
moving forward so he does not sit
back on his bottom.
6. Once your child can crawl
easily, encourage him to crawl
up stairs. Place his hands on
the first step and move up
with him. Then help him turn
around and come down the
stairs by sitting on his bottom.
Just one more
step, Alfredo. Then
we’ll play with
your cup and box!
As soon as your child is crawling, you will need to make sure that the places
where he crawls are clean and safe for him.
