She believes that parenting is easier when we have resources we trust. We all want to do everything we can to support our babies, and, ultimately, to raise good human beings.There’s a way to find joy in the mayhem, and it’s a mixture of science of art. Understanding Your Baby offers an infant enrichment curriculum for parents and caregivers of infants, with 52 bite-sized "modules" of palatable, research-based developmental information and simple, enriching activities to support your baby's development in the areas of cognitive, communicative, motor, and social/emotional development. Week by week, learn along with your growing, changing baby!YOU'LL LEARN:+ All about what your baby is likely to be working on in the areas of cognitive, communicative, motor/sensory, and social/emotional development+ Simple, practical ways to support those areas of development - using nothing more than repurposed common household objects to create play materials and musical, early literacy and sensory experiences+ How to maximize your time with your infant - whether you work out of the house full-time or home is your work+ The developmental basis for simple activities you may already be doing - helping to reaffirm what you already know and do innately, and helping to boost your likelihood to keep doing them!PRAISE FOR "UNDERSTANDING YOUR BABY:""Some of my favorite activities were the little ways of making our 'all-the-time activities' more stimulating - it encouraged what was coming naturally for me, and helped me make a more conscientious effort. There were certain things that maybe I was doing already, but then I became more deliberate about doing them because I realized there was a benefit to it!" - Dr. Anna Loeb, M.D., mother"Even though this is my second time moving through the baby months, I am learning all the time from this curriculum and as a result, finding infancy less daunting and more enjoyable this time around – if only we had access to it when Marco was little! This book answer my early development questions before I have asked them and is a great source of reassurance. Ayelet distills the complex science behind how our babies develop in a wonderfully accessible way, and offers practical ideas and games to play to help families along their developmental journey.” - Alexandra Nicoletti, mother
