Dr. Williams discusses the role of movement in your baby’s brain development. By age 6-9 months your baby is going to have the run (or crawl) of the house and that movement will bring blood flow and the development of blood vessels in the brain, thus encouraging more brain growth. Tips Dr. Williams offers includes playing “hand” games – baby’s hands are fun toys! Comfort, clean dry diapers are a must to encourage baby’s movements – play fetch, chase or wiggle and giggle all while cheering baby on with your active participation.
