Tummy time toys I use on repeat as an OT & mom

These are my favorite tummy time toys as a pediatric OT who hosts tummy time classes & works with babies. Tummy time is often over complicated but the truth is, you don’t need many fancy or cutting edge toys to get a baby to engage in play when on their belly. Here’s why I love using these during my sessions👇🏼

1. Tumtum wedge- I love the angle on this wedge. It positions baby in an optimal way to give just enough support for baby to lift their head while also making them work the muscles in their back & neck.

2. Bell socks- Love a good DIY and these socks are not only super affordable but also super easy to assemble. Just grab a pair of baby socks & glue on a jingle bell! They get babies motivated to kick.

3. Wrist & ankle rattles -There are great to use early on as babies are learning to explore their own movement
