Why Caregiving Routines?
Caregiving routines are often beautiful ways to integrate interaction and learning into your baby’s day.
The best part?
You’re already engaging in caregiving routines everyday, throughout the day.
So, whether you’re working full-time, or whether your home is your work, you can work in special learning moments and maximize your interaction time with your child.
Why music?
Music is a natural framework for interaction and play.
Babies are already paying attention to your voice, and by changing your voice in small ways to make it more musical (which you’re already likely doing if you’re integrating elements of “infant-directed speech“), you’re already halfway there!
Sing (or talk) about what you see, sing about what your baby sees, what you or your baby is doing, or something in the environment!
