Lamaze Captain Calamari Spin & Explore Gym

Product Information

The Lamaze spin and explore garden gym will help your baby to develop upper body strength and fine motor skills The toys are designed around sound and texture. Baby likes to touch and feel different things so they will reach out to investigate their immediate world or shake their hands or feet to hear rattles and tinkles. Exploring and Experimenting – 6 to 24 months Because the kiddo is elevated above the toy they are able to get some success with playing with toys on their stomach When he or she is older and has gained strength, the roller can be pushed, pulled and flipped over.

Lamaze toys are developed around the Lamaze Infant Development System which consists of three developmental themes: The age states up to 6 months, but my non-crawling 11 month old adores this still - I would be wary using it if she was crawling, or a big baby, but common sense would apply. We have been so happy with our experience with Stacy. She is a skilled therapist who is so open to all of our questions and ideas. There a couple of types of tummy time roller and they will suit a variety of ages and development stages. Eventually your curious child will begin to reach for the textures and colours they see on their tummy time mat and the vital act of play will begin.Establishing a set space and time for independent play gives children a specific environment that they know is safe to explore at will, allowing them to build up confidence as they move around and gain mobility skills. By setting this routine, it helps to condition them to associate the mat or gym with quiet play time - which is great for a wind down before bedtime.

It will be round and shaped to move easily so baby will be encouraged to wriggle and eventually crawl after it. It allows the kiddos to begin pushing up on extended arms without having to lift all the weight of their head and trunk initially I absolutely ADORE the Spin and Explore for littlies! Tummy time is encouraged, but not all little ones enjoy it - and this adds a bit of variety for them, and keeps them distracted for a bit longer, allowing more tummy time.While it allows the child to begin pivoting they are not getting the full benefit of activating their obliques and bringing their trunk into it
