Brain Game #94: Where s the Baby?
9 to 12 Months
What Brain Research Says: Researchers now confirm that how you interact with your baby and the experiences you provide have an impact on his emotional development and learning abilities.
Find several pictures of a baby and hide them in different places.
Chose places that are familiar to your baby in the toy box, on the ceiling above the changing place, or under a plate on the highchair.
Say, "Let s go find the baby."
Ask different questions: "Is it in the sink?" "Is it on the chair?"
Finally ask the question, "Is it in the toy box (or other place)?"
When your baby finds the picture, praise him and clap your hands.
You can play this game with pictures of family members and friends.</DIV>
