HOW TO ENCOURAGE YOUR BABY TO CRAWL FORWARDS?
Crawling is an important milestone in your baby's development. Babies usually crawl forwards but some crawl backwards. This causes many parents, especially first-time parents, to worry.
Although crawling backwards does not affect your baby’s development, it will cause her difficulty when she learns to walk later. If you want to help your baby crawl forwards, here are some tips for you:
- Put her favorite toy a little out of reach in front of her and encourage her to crawl towards it. She may struggle but let her try and do not assist immediately. As she tries, the muscles required for crawling forward gets stronger.
- Get yourself down on the floor and show her how to crawl forward. You could be funny as you do that.
- Once your baby comes to a crawling position, gently propel her forward by placing your hand on her bottom.
- Try moving her legs and arms to get the feeling of moving forward.
- Entice your little one forward with her favorite food.
- Use tummy time mats for your baby to practice crawling.
- Your little one needs loads of praise and encouragement from you to learn something new. Shower them with praise and see the difference.
However, remember not to force the baby. It should be fun for your baby to learn to walk and crawl. Also, do not compare your little one with other babies her age. She may be slightly ahead or behind them.
