Hands to feet

Around 3 months of age you will likely notice that your baby discovers their feet! Little ones love to explore their feet with their hands (and sometimes mouth), which is so cute to watch, but also a FUNdamental skill. Hands to feet:

  • Encourages cross-body exploration when the opposite hand reaches the foot

  • Provides early opportunities at grasping

  • Engages the core to keep the legs up against gravity

  • Stretches out your baby's hamstrings

  • May initiate rolling from back to side or tummy
