Mommy Monday: Ways to connect to your baby

It seems every time we turn around another one of our members is pregnant!  So much fun around here for Kidville Dallas!  It got us to thinking about ways for moms to connect with their new babies.  Whether it's your 1st or your 4th child, these tips will help you form a bond with your new little bundle of joy!

1. Sing to your baby

Consistently hearing your voice helps your baby learn to vocalize.  Don't worry if you're not the next Mariah Carey, you can sing along with our musicians in Rockin' Railroad.


2. Touch

Touch is the first sense we develop.  Cuddle time with your little one makes them feel safe and secure.  Not to mention, its just fun to get all of those snuggles in!

3. Read

While your babies won't understand everything, reading to them from a very early age starts teaching them about communication.  It also helps them learn about the world around them.

4. Play

By moving and playing with your little one, you're teaching them how important being active is!  Play with blocks, musical instruments, or just have tummy time with them!  You can also get your little ones moving in our Big Muscle classes or Run, Wiggle, Paint, and Giggle.
