Give your baby floor time

Spread a firm blanket on the floor and lay your baby on their back with nothing strapped around them. Sit nearby and let them kick, stretch, and turn their head wherever they want.

Why it matters

Time out of a seat or a bouncer lets your baby move freely, which is how they build the strength for rolling and, later, crawling.
