Babies who are six months old need lots of floor time so they can learn to crawl and creep. If your baby doesn’t like being on the floor by herself, join her. Play on the floor with her.

Here are two activities that you can do during floor time:

Put your baby in a sitting position. Support her with pillows. Roll a soft ball to her and clap when she tries to roll it back.

Give your baby two plastic cups. Show her how to bang them together or to bang them on the floor.
