Sitting independently is a developmental milestone that typically occurs between 6-9 months of age. If your baby is in that range and working on becoming more stable with their sitting balance, you can try this! If your baby is younger (4-6 months), check out my other video for prop sitting as a way to introduce sitting (in my “sitting” playlist) I’m showing examples here that anyone can set up no matter what toys you have! Some other good sitting props: V-tech activity cube The front side of a push walker An activity table with two legs removed so it is slanted @Fisher-Price kick and play piano 👋🏼 hi! I’m Marissa.

Developmental activities should be simple and easy to integrate into your baby’s daily routine! 🙌🏻 These are all things that can be done DAILY with your baby that have TONS of benefits! If you are feeling overwhelmed with what to do with your baby, please let this be a reminder that it doesn’t need to be a Pinterest-perfect activity. Let’s take it back to the basics 👏🏼 👋🏼 hi!

The last one is my favorite 😅 there is a lot of variability with skills at this age, so I included age ranges on several of these. Every baby develops at their own pace. 🙌🏼 #pediatricot #occupationaltherapy #firsttimemom #6monthsold #earlyintervention #developmentalmilestones #tummytime #momsoftiktok #momtok
