How to try it

Invite another caregiver over and lay both babies on their backs on the same blanket, close enough to see each other. Sit alongside with a drink and let the babies look, kick, and squeak while you talk.

Materials

  • Blanket

Safety note

Stay beside both babies the whole time and keep the blanket flat, with no pillows or loose covers.

Why it matters
