OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR FIRST-TIME PARENTS

Mountain View, CA…A baby’s on the way. Yikes! Where are the operating instructions? Baby Be Loved: Growing and Learning Together During the First 24 Weeks takes much of the guess work out of being a first-time parent, as new moms and dads are gently guided to help stimulate their baby’s growing sensory awareness through playful activities.

A perfect gift for first-time parents, Baby Be Loved offers simple songs, exercises and games to stimulate the baby’s emotional, intellectual, physical and social development throughout the first six months of life. Parents will learn what a baby is capable of, and what they as parents can do, at each developmental stage.

Babies coo with delight as moms and dads are guided through sensory-rich experiences, such as: softly singing, gently massaging their tiny limbs, blowing bubbles, or sweeping the babe up in a loving embrace and dancing him around the room. Parents also learn scores of helpful tips, such as: how to strengthen their infant’s language abilities, enhance their child’s sense of self-discovery, or increase their baby’s coordination or physical flexibility during play time.

Meant to hang like a calendar, each day, all a mom or dad has to do is look up and follow the simple suggestion that is offered for that day of the week. Each fun little game, rhyme, exercise will not only strengthen the development of the infant’s brain, but will also lovingly strengthen the bond between parents and child.

As an added bonus, high-contrast images in strikingly bright colors are presented opposite each page of weekly activities. In a very natural way, these images help stimulate the infant’s brain cell connections and increase his powers of attention and concentration.

Being a new parent is challenging enough. Endorsed by medical doctors as well as new parents around the country, this daily guide is a great way to help put first-time moms and dads at ease with their new little bundle of joy.
