#11 Among Fun Baby Games ---- Pull and let go

This game stimulates and develops your baby's eye-hand coordination, independence, helps to increase attention span, builds confidence.

Material Needed and preparation

Obtain a large rubber band or a piece of elastic and fasten it securely to any small safe object . Tie this securely to a chair, table, play pen rail or a door knob so that the attached object will hand freely.

Play Instruction

Show your baby how you pull the object and let it go. Your baby will see that the object returns to its original position. Pull the object several more times while the baby watches you. Encourage your baby to help you pull, then allow him to pull the object on himself. Be sure to praise your baby throughout the game.

At another time, different objects can be used for this same game. Babies of this age enjoy pulling, poking and pushing objects around, and will work independently if a few safe objects are made available.

Also if you are teaching your baby sign language, now it is a good opportunity to get the objects which are able to make signs involved.
