Help your baby develop their fine motor skills! This practice builds the speed of communication between their brain’s two hemispheres.
- In the beginning, your baby will probably just enjoy banging the egg and cup together—they’re still using both sides of their body to do this.
- See if they can dump the egg out of the cup at first. Eventually, they’ll work out how to put the egg back in.
- Show your baby how to set the egg in the cup and then take it out again.
- Have your baby hold the egg in one hand and the cup in the other, then encourage them to put the two together.
- You can help guide their hands while standing or sitting behind your baby.
