From luxury print pods that will add style to the nursery, to easy-clean cocoons you can have in every room, keep scrolling for the best baby nests on the market. Best baby nests to shop now If you're solo parenting for any length of time during mat leave, popping your tiny tot down while you tend to your own needs can feel strangely heart wrenching. But even the lightest babies can start to give you arm ache after a while, and a woman needs to pee/put the kettle on/conquer the world. During the first few weeks, newborn babies can snooze for up to 22 hours a day. While snuggles are essential for bonding, if your bubba only dozed in your arms for that entire time, you would never get anything done! So, if you want to provide a safe space for your little one to relax and give your biceps a break in the process, this is where baby nests step in. Your baby will love the different sounds and textures of each material. This is also a hands-on opportunity for them to strengthen their fine motor skills as they grasp and manipulate the material.

Sensory play can happen as soon as you take your baby home. Your baby will instinctively recognise your voice and smell. You can incorporate sensory play into everyday activities just by talking to them and keeping them close. Narrating your day is also useful for giving your baby auditory input. It’s super easy to do, just talk about what you’re doing as you’re doing it. This will help form the connections in the brain for language development. New baby in the house? After a few days of gazing lovingly at your perfect little creation, one thing the experts don't warn you about is the pressing need to put your newborn down for a moment. Almost anything can be a sensory toy, but I’d start with something like: foil emergency blanket, rainmaker, a Brio rattle, a glitter wand, a small child-safe mirror, a maraca.” SBAM Sensory play is beneficial for the development of many important skills your baby will need to learn. Much sensory play can be as simple as exposure: continuously talking to your baby as you go about your day will help them to start developing their language skills. Even if they are too young to talk, they will still absorb it.The (usually) bold colours, patterns and sounds of a play nest will stimulate them while encouraging hand-eye coordination, and fine and gross motor skills as it will be a lot easier for your child to play with toys.

Rattles are a great sensory activity for babies. Not only are they noisy, but they will also help build motor skills and muscle strength with all that rattling. You can either buy a rattle or make your own by putting pasta or rice in a plastic bottle and shaking it. Easy peasy! If you can afford them, they are a fun and helpful activity to build into your day. But the reality of sensory classes is that a lot of the activities can be replicated at home. So your baby won’t miss out majorly from not attending them. Sensory classes give your baby a sense of routine, they also help establish self-awareness, giving them stimulation and also giving you a chance to socialise with your baby.

ACCESSORIES

The best way to introduce sensory play is to provide the opportunity for stimulating moments in your day. Don’t worry about setting aside time at first. When you’re changing them or washing them you can talk to them, or at other times gently stroke different textures against their skin (think blankets, towels, baby wipes etc). 0-12 months It's easy to get swept up in all the baby gear you're told you 'need' as a new parent and included in that list might be a play nest.

Sensory play is broadly defined as any type of play which involves the use of the five senses: touch, taste, sound, smell, sight. Activities that involve movement can also be considered sensory play. Two to three-year-olds might enjoy playing with flour. You can help them make dough out of flour and water. They’ll love feeling the different textures and watching science in action as the flour becomes dough! Sensory classes are specially designed sessions to encourage your child with practical ways of engaging in fun sensory activity. The activities are designed to enhance and promote your baby’s sensory development. You may engage in the following activities: sound tubes for auditory enhancement, playing in the sandbox, taste test activities, puffball sorting, beading, playing with water, playing with frozen toys to help teach the difference between hot and cold, or painting. If you do decide to use a pod, it's important to be aware of the Lullaby Trust's warning and to make sure that you: Choose a pod or nest with a firm mattress. Soft mattresses have been linked to an increase risk of SIDS. A firm mattress shouldn't sink more than a few millimetres when your baby is placed on it. Avoid memory foam mattresses.
