As your baby nears the 6-month mark you have the chance to interact with them in numerous new ways! They have developed a personality and while they’re still cute, squishy and fun to stare at, now is the time to get them out in the world. but what can you really finish with a 6-month-old baby? There are so numerous activities for 6 month olds that you’ll both have fun participating in. The world is your oyster; let’s explore it!
Activities To Do at home with Your 6 Month Old
No need for makeup and real clothes for these activities! here is a list of fun activities that you and your baby can delight in at home:
Sensory Play Arts and Crafts
It’s never too early to introduce your little one to the arts! Baby’s are continuously exploring and at about 6 months of age they are really really into figuring things out and making sense of the world. Arts and crafts are a great way to get your baby’s attention and let them explore a new part of the world.
Paint in a Bag
Let’s keep things a little clean first. painting in a bag is a great way to let your baby explore color and texture. place a piece of paper in a large zip lock bag and then add some non-toxic paint to the paper. push many of the air out of the bag and seal it up (double-check the seal) and then let your baby push on the paint and make a beautiful piece of art.
Pintura de dedos
If you are feeling daring, strip your baby down to just their diaper, put them in their high chair and let them finger paint. Be sure to use paint that is non-toxic and keep a close eye on them! Baby’s at this age want to put everything in their mouths so be sure to sit with them during this activity. this one is pretty messy so you might want to have a box of wipes with you and a bath ready to go as soon as they are done.
Plastilina
You can make your own or use the stuff from the store but your baby is going to love this! Again, make sure your baby doesn’t eat the play dough. They will love playing with the soft and cool dough and smashing it again and again.
Color Together
Este se explica por sí mismo. just make sure your baby doesn’t eat them or you will be changing a rainbow diaper later.
Tiempo de música
Kids love music time! Plus, music is so crucial to a child’s development and helps baby understand rhythm and the sounds around them. Tom Petty radio is my 4-year old’s favorite station. happy mother best here! but my 2-year-old only loves baby Shark. I’ll convert him sooner or later.
Toca instrumentos
If you have instruments in your home, use them! My in-laws have a beautiful baby grand piano and my kids have loved listening to someone play it from the time they were babies.
Make Your own Instruments
Music can be made out of practically anything. show your baby how to drum on pots and pans or make them a maraca out of a plastic bottle and popcorn kernels. Your baby will love making their own music!
*Tip: If you make a maraca, be sure that you use a clean, dry plastic bottle and be sure to really protected or even glue the lid on once you’ve added the popcorn kernels.
Dance to Music
Get up and groove with your baby. put on whatever makes you relocation to the beat and dance with your baby. You can also sit and dance with your little one too. show them how to rock their bodies while sitting on the floor or shake their shoulders. They will love being silly with you and learning new ways to relocation their bodies.
Learning activities for Your 6 Month Old
Leer
Reading is so essential to your baby. It is recommended to start reading to your baby as soon as possible. once your baby is 6 months old, they will love sitting and seeing the pictures in a book. use funny voices and make silly faces when reading. Doing all of this helps baby associate reading with fun and affection.
Nursery Rhymes involving Hand-Eye Coordination
Clapping is a huge milestone for babies at 6 months. They are learning hand-eye coordination at this age and teaching them nursery rhymes such as Patty Cake and Itsy-Bitsy Spider are great ways to instruct them this skill.
Activities with Your 6 Month Old That will get You Out of the House
Activities To finish with a 6 Month Old in Your Neighborhood
Take your baby outside and let them get some fresh air! There is so much to see, do, and smell outside so let them explore and take it all in.
Go on a Nature Walk
You can walk your baby around your home or take them on a walk around your neighborhood. getting your baby outside is good for them and it’s a great mood booster for you. speak with them on your walk and show them different colors and textures.
Explore textures Outside
Let your baby explore the textures outside. sit them in the turf and view their reaction. Some kids love it, others hate it. let them hold a flower or touch the bumpy tree bark.
Tiza
Chalk can be messy, but it cleans off so easily with wet wipes. You want to make sure they don’t eat the chaLK, al igual que los crayones. Les encantará hacer arte en la acera y sentir la textura de la tiza.
Piscina
Si hace calor afuera, ponga sus trajes y siéntese en una pequeña piscina para bebés en su propio patio trasero. Si a tu bebé ama la hora del baño, ¡también les encantará! Pueden salpicar todo lo que quieran y está afuera. ¡Eso es ganar-ganar!
Soplar burbujas
A los niños les encantan las burbujas. Período. No se requiere explicación aquí.
Hacer una excursión
Quedarse en casa todo el tiempo puede hacer que alguien se vuelva loco. Empaca tu bolso, consigue a tu bebé y sal para una excursión real.
Ve al zoológico
A los 6 meses, probablemente no entenderán todos los animales y lo que realmente es el zoológico, pero no es una gran salida familiar. A su bebé le encantará el aire fresco y explorar todos los diferentes lugares de interés, sonidos y olores.
Camina a un parque cercano
Puedes ir a un patio de recreo o solo un parque de césped. ¡O cualquiera está perfectamente bien! Como siempre, al llevarlos a algo nuevo, hable con ellos y discuta lo que está sucediendo. Así es como aprenden, la repetición es clave.
Mira la biblioteca
Elija algunos libros nuevos para leerlos o llevarlos a la hora del cuento para que puedan escuchar nuevas voces. ¡Nuevamente, están experimentando cosas tan numerosas cuando las llevas a un lugar nuevo! No se sorprenda si estas salidas las eliminan.
Relájate en la piscina del vecindario
¡Ponte tus trajes de baño, obtén el SPF 100 y ve a nadar! A los bebés les encanta meterse en el agua y sentir la ingravidez de sí mismos. Sin embargo, aguanta bien; ¡Se vuelven bastante resbaladizos con bloqueo solar!
Dirígete a un museo
Nuevamente, esto se trata solo de explorar otras cosas. Hablar con ellos y mostrarles cosas nuevas es muy emocionante y divertido para usted y su bebé.
¿Necesita una actividad de beneficio?
¡Ve a una fecha de juego!
Las fechas de juego son excelentes a esta edad. Si nunca antes habían estado cerca de otro bebé, es muy divertido ver cómo miran a alguien de su edad. Además, encontrar un amigo que esté pasando por las mismas etapas de la vida que tú es realmente agradable.
Es posible que no se haya dado cuenta de cuán numerosas cosas puede terminar con su bebé. 6 meses es una etapa favorita para mí. Están aprendiendo a comer, desarrollando una personalidad, podrían estar sentados solos y mucho más. Sea creativo y pase un tiempo de unión con su bebé. ¡El tiempo vuela cuando te estas divirtiendo!
