Bright Starts: Tummy Time

Make tummy time something your little one looks forward to. Tummy time toys give babies something fun to see and reach for while they build the neck, shoulder, and core strength they need to roll, sit, and crawl. Prop pillows offer gentle support for younger babies, and play gyms with lights and music keep curious eyes engaged a little longer. You can start in the newborn weeks with short, supervised sessions while your baby is awake, building up as they grow stronger. Lying tummy to tummy on your chest counts too, especially early on. Every minute on their tummy is a tiny win.
