Playing with Baby

Babies are amazing! From the moment they open their eyes, they are learning and developing at an astonishing rate.

Parents naturally want to engage with infants as they learn and grow, but what if we could optimise the way we play with babies? Backed by the latest research and years of observation, psychoanalyst Laurie Hollman distills the experts' findings for new parents, giving them a guide to the first year of a baby's life and the type of play that aligns with the developmental milestones that occur in each month. While aiding natural development is a big plus, the real payoff for parents comes from the baby's reaction: when we play on the baby's level, we engage and connect more deeply - and we have more fun!
