Play time helps with your baby’s social, intellectual, language and problem solving skills. But this means that downtime is often work for your little one.
Occupational Therapist and Pampers Institute Member, Kate Bailey, suggests that you make sure to prioritise unstructured free play so that your baby can make sense of the world with no added pressure.
Unstructured, free play time allows your baby to find his place in the world around him. Watch the Pampers YouTube video for more of Kate’s insight into why play time is so important for your baby.
