Want to light up your baby’s developing brain? Think “serve and return.” 🎾 Much like a tennis match, serve and return entails back and forth interaction during which adult and child trade conversational (and other expressive) turns. This father/daughter duo provide a terrific example. Only 8-weeks-old, baby “serves” by...

Daily reading is a gift to your baby. 📚 And this mom is giving an absolute master class in how to do it right. Note first that she’s reading face-to-face. At this age (10 weeks), there is literally nothing more thrilling - or instructional - to your newborn than your face. Check out how intently focused baby is on mom’s voice and facial expressions. Through careful study this little one will soon begin to mimic what they see and hear. Mom reads with expression and emotion, alternating between glances at the text and direct eye contact with her adoring audience of one. And there is so much going on in that developing brain. Did you know that during the earliest years of life babies form new neural connections at an estimated 1 million per SECOND? With these types of rich daily interactions, mom is setting her baby up for a lifetime of success. And you can do the same. Read, talk, sing and play with your baby. Kudos to KelseyPaumer (IG) on this fantastic and educational 🎥 clip.

If ever there was a “look of love” this has got to be it. 😍 I mean… book? What book? This little one ONLY has eyes for his mama. Eye contact is an important early developmental milestone and plays a number of roles for your baby. First and foremost, eye contact is critical to attachment and bonding. The stronger your emotional connection, the greater your baby’s sense of security - which contributes to optimal brain development. (Note, btw, that his little one appears to be in the hospital, making this emotionally secure - and almost enraptured - interaction all the more impressive, given what might otherwise be a stressful environment.) But there’s more than just safe and secure bonding happening here. There’s also serious learning. As your baby studies your face, they’re making connections between expressions and feelings - and, importantly, learning to speak. This little one may not be quite ready to replicate mom’s vocalizations quite yet, but he’s watching intently to see how his mother’s mouth moves and contorts to make all the wonderful sounds he’s taking in. With that gaze, he’s learning how to become just like mom. This beautiful video was shared to IG by mother_withchild.

Get a load of this sweet little “puppy!” 🐶 Infants are masterful observers and mimics of the environments and key figures in the world around them. It’s how they learn. And that can extend beyond their human relatives. Watch how this little one practices sticking out her tongue - and panting - in the style of the family dog. It’s a complex (two part) impersonation - and one that show’s baby’s growing analytical skills and control over her body. Too cool! Have you ever noticed your baby imitating a beloved pet? What did they do? This sweet video was shared by ridgeplay on IG.

Want your child to take an interest in literacy? Remember that in child development you reap what you sow. Daily reading (ideally configured face-to-face) is a wonderful way to plant the seeds of language and literacy with your baby from their earliest days. Not only will reading together substantially boost your child’s vocabulary over time, but it illustrates a powerful lesson: this is something YOU value and enjoy. And as I’ve written a thousand times, your baby wants nothing more than to be just like you. Don’t be discouraged as you get started. Infants have very short attention spans and will initially spend more time attuned to you than the book (hence the face to face), and may seek to explore books first with their mouths (which is why sturdy, laminated board books are a great first choice). Don’t let any of this deter you. Start small. But start. And make reading a part of your daily routine. As this lovely video shared to IG by sophia.s.playroom illustrates, the benefits can be huge.

For your baby, laughter conveys much more than just “I find this funny.” 😂🤣😂 Long before babies can speak conventionally, they begin laughing - making it one of humankind’s earliest and most important forms of communication. And according to Caspar Addyman - a British researcher who specializes in baby laughter (and whose job I will now envy until the end of time), laughter is not only a signal that your baby is feeling relaxed and comfortable - but also that they are finding real pleasure in the company of others. In fact, Addyman’s research suggests that - exposed to the same stimuli - babies are up to eight times more likely to laugh in the presence of another child or trusted adult. That’s because laughter is fundamentally social. Think of it as your baby’s way of saying, “I’m enjoying our connection.” This giggly little one was shared to TT by gemandroe.

During pregnancy, we often speak of adults as “expectant.” An expectant mother. Expectant parents. But we aren’t the only ones. As your baby enters the world, they too are expectant. Expectant of your love. Your care and protection. Your active attention. And your mentorship - in the form of up close, face-to-face modeling and interaction. And when they get it, amazing things happen in their developing brains. Witness this little communicator, shared to IG by heatherkingoftheworld. He’s getting exactly the thing he desires most - mom’s active engagement - and paying it back with messages about just how much it delights him. In the end it’s hard to tell who’s more enthralled by their interaction. Talk about a win-win.

All of you Leftists out there in the streets chanting Free Palestine and saying it's okay to let Sharia Law rule in this land. This is just a tidbit of the sickness you are advocating for. Go home and look at your young 9-year-old daughter and tell her you want her to lay with a man as old as her dad. And then tell her if she screams or cries when he touches her, it's her fault if he beats her into submission. People out there screaming for this kind of thing to be in America disgust me.

This video that’s circulating of Kylie and Timotheé is the perfect example of how every woman wants a man to act towards them. Literally all of his attention is on her. He is making her feel like the most beautiful and special girl in the entire room. And you can tell he’s absolutely obsessed with her. This is all a woman wants. This behavior is more important than your looks, it’s more important than the amount of money you make, the car you drive, and all of the other reasons people list in order to be in a relationship. How you treat her and how you make her feel on a daily basis will ALWAYS be what makes her fall and stay in love with you.

Your baby needs a little tummy time daily. Yesterday I wrote about crawling, noting that with sleep recommendations now (wisely) advising infants sleep only on their backs, babies are spending less and less time in a downward facing position - making it all the more important that parents build well supervised tummy time into their daily routines. Tummy time has many benefits. Primary among them, it strengthens the back, neck and arm muscles that help with holding up the head, rolling over, sitting and crawling. It also helps to decrease the incidence of flat spots on the back of your baby’s head. And it can help relieve gas and constipation, just to name a few. You can begin short, supervised periods of tummy time as soon as your child is born. These earliest sessions often begin on mom’s chest - but can be done on other safe surfaces as well. Begin with 2-3 minutes at a time and work your way up. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends increasing the frequency and duration of these sessions to the point your baby spends a total of 20-30 minutes a day by the time your baby is 7 weeks old. Be forewarned that, especially early on, tummy time is a workout (and therefore not always well liked by some children) - but with time and experience will help to develop the muscle strength your newborn lacks. This little one (shared to IG by enjoybabyss) has got tummy time down pat. Check out those strong neck muscles!

There’s no other way to describe it: Your child’s physical and intellectual growth between 12 and 24 months is exponential. At one year of age many children are speaking their first words and taking their first unsteady steps. A year later and you’ll hardly recognize them as the same child. Check out this little one (shown here approaching two) who manages to string together, not a word or two, but a six word sentence (requesting to be taken to her grandmother’s house). When her father asks her to repeat herself, she lays it on thick, adding a pair of extra pleases at the start of the sentence for good measure - extending her request to 8 words. Isn’t it amazing to think that less than 12 months earlier this little one likely spoke her first word? Such amazing growth in her vocabulary and sophistication. Kudos little one! Here’s hoping you made it over to grandma’s house. When did your baby speak their first words? Their first full sentences? This adorable language learner was shared to TT by rosemeblue_alllove.

Touch matters - for you and your baby. Of all the senses, touch is the one with which your baby is most attuned at birth. And after 9 months developing in close quarters, it’s the one they crave for feelings of safety and comfort. When you hold your newborn, you may notice they almost melt into your arms - configuring themselves for maximum contact. This is especially true in instances of skin-to-skin contact. Notice how this little one has configured his sleep position to maximize contact between Mom’s face and his own. This mutual touch is beneficial for both mother and child, as nerve endings in the skin signal the brain to release endorphins, Oxytocin and Serotonin - often referred to as “love hormones.” Look for opportunities to be in direct contact with your baby throughout the day. You’ll both feel better for it. This loving pair was shared to TT by bmm993.

Just because your baby’s eyes are open doesn’t necessarily mean they’re awake. And the same holds true in reverse. Weird, right? During active (or REM) sleep it’s not uncommon for your baby to open their eyes for brief periods, to make noises, and to move their body actively. The (open eyes) phenomenon, known as psychological lagophthalmos, is common in newborns and may be attributable in part to immaturity of their central nervous system. The important thing here is not to be too quick to assume your little one has finished sleeping just because their eyes open. This video is a great example. Baby’s eyes are partially open, but he is in the midst active sleep (which comprises half or more of each newborn sleep cycle). Likewise, there are situations where your child may appear to be asleep, but isn’t. Particularly in bright, noisy, or otherwise overstimulating environments your child may feign sleep (when they are feeling overwhelmed) as a sort of defense mechanism. This is called habituation. And while it may look like sleep it does not provide the same restorative benefits - and often concludes with prolonged periods of crying as a sort of stress relief. Long story short, you can’t always judge your baby’s level of alertness from their eyes alone - so be sensitive and observant in both circumstances. (And if you suspect your baby is habituating due to overstimulation, try to get them to an environment better suited to their needs.) This little one was shared to TT by laura.sunday.

Little girl no older than 7-8 years old can be seen coloring with chalk the words ‘f*ck Trump’. I guarantee her parents drew this and are using her as a prop for this video. THIS IS GROOMING AND INDOCTRINATION! Leave the kids out of your misguided and wrong world view. Shame on those parents!

Children learn what they live. When morning sickness overcame this mom, her toddler stepped in to provide comfort and support - modeling the very same language and behavior to which she, herself, has grown accustomed. There’s nothing being given here that this sweet little one hasn’t also received in abundance - and that’s a beautiful tribute to mom herself. Want your child to be a model of kindness? Compassion? Be a living example. (And feel better mom.) This little apprentice in caring was shared to TT by katherinexhagen.

Infant sleep can be such a tricky thing. Just as soon as you get reaccustomed to resting through the night, all of a sudden your baby reverts to waking multiple times a night. Welcome to the 8 month sleep regression. Interruptions in sleep patterns often coincide with the development of new skills and somewhere around 8 months you’re due for the biggest of them all. That’s because your baby is becoming mobile - and putting all the skills together to roll, crawl, and even pull to a stand in their crib. For infants this is a HUGE breakthrough. Imagine having spent your entire life mostly stationary, with your ability to pursue your own interests - or even adjust your view - subject to the whims of a caregiver. Somewhere between 6-9 months most babies begin discovering a host of new abilities. And let’s face it, some of them are a lot more entertaining than sleep. The good news (at 3am) is that the novelty here is temporary…but there are some important ways you can help your baby to navigate this period safely. Perhaps the most important one is illustrated in this video. And that’s adjusting the height of your child’s crib mattress to its lowest level. With newborns and immobile infants, it’s often convenient to elevate their mattress so they can be placed into and retrieved from the crib more easily. But when your baby begins pulling to a stand it’s critical that you lower their mattress to prevent accidental falls. Babies are top heavy and can easily go tumbling out without such adjustments. You may also find that your baby masters pulling to a stand faster than they master sitting back down - which can create a crib dilemma and a need for assistance. You can navigate through this phase more quickly by providing lots of wakeful practice in both standing and sitting, which may involve gently guiding your little one to bend their legs at the knee - or even placing an appealing toy on the ground near their feet to incentivize sitting back down. As for the sleep regression, it’ll be over before you know it. And while it can be frustrating in the middle of the night, think of it as a breakthrough. Your baby is reaching new developmental milestones - and about to go fully mobile. This sweet little guy was shared to IG by fesgheliha_.

As for the sleep regression, it’ll be over before you know it. And while it can be frustrating in the middle of the night, think of it as a breakthrough. Your baby is reaching new developmental milestones - and about to go fully mobile. This sweet little guy was shared to IG by fesgheliha_.

Infants use every tool in their toolbox to mimic their most trusted caregivers. This little one, shared to FB by Kristen Humphrey, is an amazing example. Listen to how close he comes to saying “I love you” back to his dad. How does he do it? The answer is using both sight and sound. Watch how carefully he’s studying his father’s face, using not only the cadence and sound of dad’s words but the subtle movements of his mouth to help inform his own try. And wow does he ever come close! This is how so much learning begins for infants: up close and face to face - which makes it particularly important that you carve out time to interact directly with your baby. Not just in proximity. Not in the presence of a screen. But eye to eye and face to face. It’s where the magic happens.

Erika Kirk shares a video of her daughter saying her father's name as they drive by Turning Point USA headquarters. "her...saying your name, as she witnesses all you've built and continue to build, proves that love never dies, just changes form. It breathes through our children," Erika said on IG. "This is her legacy also. And as she grows up and continues to say your name, I'll be reminding her that each time heaven leans in to listen." "I love you Charlie baby, I'm so proud of you. We all are so proud of you."
