Quiet Time Together With Your Six Month Old

November 18, 2007 by GreatDad Writers Leave a Comment

Be sure to have a little quiet time with your baby every day. Turn
off the TV. Turn off the radio. Have a place and time for you and your baby
to be quiet together.

Your baby needs to get to know you. And you need to get to know her.
Every baby has a different style. Some are active. Some are quiet. Some do
not like changes in their daily routines.

You are your baby’s first teacher. She has a lot to learn before she goes to
school. She has to learn to talk, to walk and to feed herself. But she has
much more to learn so she can do well in school later in life.
During her first three years, your baby learns a lot of important ideas. Right
now, she can pick up a toy or make different sounds.

Your baby needs to learn how to get along with other people. She learns
this from you and your family. She learns this by playing with other
children.

Your baby will learn about the idea of “cause and effect.” When your baby
shakes a rattle and laughs at the sound, she is learning that she can make
things happen.

Hold your baby often. It will help her learn to trust. It will help her learn
to love.

You can learn more about how to teach your baby as she grows. Talk to
your doctor or clinic. They may have a list of helpful books, videos or
classes.

Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks
Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad. Connect with us at greatdad.com and watch the video version of these podcasts at YouTube.com/greatdadnews
