All your baby needs is you! “Serve & Return”

There’s A LOT of toys and gadgets on the market these days for baby and children’s play, but did you know for optimal brain development, communication and social skills – sensitive, responsive and playful interactions with caregivers is BEST and it’s FREE!

Serve and Return – like a game of tennis is a back and forth interaction between a caregiver and infant/ child – babbling, eye contact, gestures, mimicking sounds and facial expressions, conversation and cuddles – build critical brain skills, confidence and safety for a child.

Your baby’s brain literally learns, builds and reinforces neural connections and strengthens through these interactions! Amazing! 

It’s a delightful experience, easy and FREE. Yup, just being with, holding, talking, and playing with your baby is age appropriate, great for them and great for you. 

Enjoy!
