How to Play with Your Newborn Baby at 1 Month Old

Wondering how to play with your newborn baby? Communication is the first form of play! When it comes to communication, baby learns by watching the people around them. Communication can include talking, but is also any form of message sent from one person to another, through sounds, words, or physical hints, like body language. Incorporating this into playtime can strengthen baby’s communication, play, and social skills. Learn how to encourage communication development while playing with your one-month old!
