Touch
We spend time in Village using touch in different ways with different parts of the body. Babies learn dimension, texture, line and even color through touch and also the sense of "this is me" and "this is something else." Intentional touch strengthens babies' ability to relax while relieving digestive problems or fussiness. |
Communication
When we're talking and making sounds with our babies, we pause and give them a chance to respond. This helps them to learn "turn taking" which is fundamental to conversation. Actual words aren't important, but vocal inflection demonstrates natural conversation along with eye contact that encourages response. |
Intentional Touch
Massage releases both oxytocin and endorphins and therefore can assist with pain relief and mood enhancement at times like teething, congestion, colic and emotional distress. |
Rocking:
Moving in differnet directions and in a variety of ways is important to the development of Baby's vestibular system, which effects your child's developing sense of balance. |
