Babymassage and tummy time activities

It is super good and important for your baby's development to lie on their tummy a lot. It strengthens the back and neck - and forms the basis for later being able to crawl & sit. But many babies fight against it - they find it difficult and not at all cool!

In this workshop you will get a lot of exercises, tips and ideas for tummy time games.

We use simple and cheap tools - you don't have to go out and invest in expensive equipment afterwards. In the latter half of the workshop we will focus on several lovely and easy types of baby massage.

We will try baby massage for play and stimulation - as well as to relieve, for example, a sluggish stomach. In the last few minutes we will just check up on our techniques for first aid for foreign bodies in the airways for babies 0-12 months.

After the class, notes will be sent by email to those interested.
