Newborn crawling training

When babies are five or six months old, their bodies are relatively strong and they will try to turn over. Then, as they grow a little bit older, they can support their bodies with their arms and legs. Yes, babies will start to crawl, but in the beginning, parents must give good guidance to help their babies learn to crawl. The editor below has helped to organize some relevant things.

1. Choose the right crawling equipment

When the baby is learning to crawl, parents should choose appropriate clothes for the baby. It is not suitable for babies to wear separate pants when they are learning to crawl. It is more suitable for babies to wear overalls. This way the pants will not fall down due to being pulled back and forth, and the baby will not feel the lower abdomen being squeezed by the belt when crawling. The lower belly and abdomen will naturally not be exposed, which can prevent the baby from getting cold.

2. Provide a good environment for children to learn to crawl

Generally, babies like to crawl on the bed or on the floor. When the baby is crawling on the ground, be sure to avoid the ground being too cold or too hard, otherwise it will increase the baby's discomfort and reduce the baby's interest in learning to crawl. Parents can buy a crawling mat for their baby to help them learn to crawl.

Three stages of learning to crawl

It takes time for a baby to learn to crawl. During this process, the baby needs to explore and learn on his own, and then he can slowly crawl forward and find his own sense of balance. There are usually three stages when a baby learns to crawl.

Phase 1: Reserve Force

The first 6 months when the baby learns to crawl is mainly the time for the baby to reserve strength. At this time, parents should focus on training the baby's neck strength, waist and back strength, and leg strength. If the baby has accumulated enough strength at this stage, the next two stages will be easier to achieve.

Phase 2: Mastering the Technique

The second stage is when babies are trying to find their own sense of balance and coordination. They will help themselves crawl through constant exploration and experimentation. Once they have mastered the skills and found the feeling, they can't stop. They will love this new sport and enjoy the joy of their own success.

Phase 3: Consolidation Practice

The third stage of a baby's crawling learning is the consolidation stage. Babies at this stage hope that their daily progress can be recognized and praised by their parents. At this time, parents should help their children build self-confidence and affirm their children's behavior.

Baby crawling training method

When parents are helping their babies learn to crawl, they cannot just stand by and do nothing. Parents need to give advice when their babies are learning to crawl. Help your baby learn to crawl easily through reasonable training methods.

1. Directional climbing

Place the baby's favorite toys in front of the baby and guide the baby to grab the small toys. At this time, parents can gently apply force on the baby's feet to help the baby move forward.

2. Free climbing

Clear out a piece of open space for your baby and place many small toys on it. The baby can crawl around to find toys that interest him or her, which will stimulate his or her interest in crawling.

3. Turn to crawl

First put the small toy in front of the baby, then put it behind the baby, and guide the baby to turn around and find the small toy.
