Hello, little you

A familiar voice, a silly face, a small conversation.

Let's try it

What you'll need

Just you and a comfortable, supported position.

A little invitation

  1. Hold your awake baby securely or sit beside them on a clear floor mat.
  2. Say their name, make a gentle expression and leave a little pause.
  3. Respond to their sounds or looks. Let them set the pace.

Keep voices gentle. Pause when baby turns away, gets tired or seems uncomfortable.

Our very first story

Make a tiny story about the ordinary magic of your day.

  2. Add a simple drawing: a cup, a cloud or the family cat.
  3. Read your little story aloud when baby is awake and content.

This is a grown-up craft. Keep paper, pens and loose materials out of baby's reach.

A wide, child-safe brush, a little clean water and a dark outdoor paving slab.

A little invitation

  2. An adult dips the brush in a little water and hands it over.
  3. Make a line or a dot, then watch the marks disappear together.

A little invitation

  1. Choose one shape, such as a circle or a rectangle.
  2. Walk together and point to things that share that shape.
  3. Finish with a favourite discovery and a pretend explorer wave.

One lovely thing

A small end-of-day ritual, with room for every feeling.

Let's try it

What you'll need

A quiet moment together.

A little invitation

  1. Share one small thing you enjoyed today.
  2. Invite your child to share with words, a gesture or a drawing.

Let your child pass or share a difficult feeling. This is an invitation, never a test.

Add to Mon

Made for shared time with an adult. Ages are a guide: choose what suits your child's abilities and interests, supervise throughout, and stop if they are tired or uncomfortable.
