The Tummy Time Water Mat: Strengthening and Developing Baby

The Tummy Time Water Mat is designed to help babies build strength in their back, legs, arms, and neck, while also promoting hand-eye coordination and brain development.

What is Tummy Time? Tummy Time refers to the periods during the day when a baby spends time lying on their stomach while awake. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends Tummy Time as a crucial part of a baby's development, as it helps counter the "Back to Sleep" positioning that is recommended to reduce the risk of SIDS.

When should Tummy Time start? Tummy Time can begin as soon as a baby comes home from the hospital. It's recommended that by 3 months of age, babies work up to an hour of Tummy Time per day, with shorter sessions several times a day.

Tips for Tummy Time To make Tummy Time more engaging, parents can: - Lie next to the baby and talk, read books, or sing - Place a non-breakable mirror next to the baby to see their reflection - Position safe toys within reach to encourage head turning and visual focus - Vary the Tummy Time location, including outdoors on a rug in warm weather

The Tummy Time Water Mat This inflatable water mat features a turtle-shaped design with various marine animal patterns to capture a baby's curiosity and promote exploration. The 8 floating, double-sided EVA animals provide engaging visual and tactile stimulation.
