Discover the joys of truly beneficial sensory stimulation for baby.

In this class we'll define, and discuss, the concept of "container care" (time spent in a car seat outside the car, and certain other, popularly used, baby-containing equipment) and how it limits baby's own natural movements.

We'll go over which common baby equipment is actually developmentally inappropriate for baby, interferes with motor skill development and undermines baby's motivation to be a curious explorer/learner. Because a curious baby, exploring her environment, is developing important motor skills, as well as building self esteem.

Come learn what you can do to promote healthy brain and body development for your baby!
