Motion Moments Infants shows you a few simple ways to weave physical activity into

your current early care and education program in a center or family child care

people everywhere are talking about the obesity problem in america

and the health problems associated with obesity not only impact adults

as a caregiver, you are in a special position

and uniquely qualified to help children develop

physical activity and movement are essential to help children gain new skills

infants are completely dependent on their parents

for many years the american academy of pediatrics has said

here are just a few ways to encourage infant in your care

to move in play while awake and playing on their tummies

talk and encourage the baby to keep his head up

place the object so at least some effort is required to touch it

at first babies may fuss or struggle and be uncomfortable in this position

if you give the babies in your care a  chance to be in this position

or even several times during the day while awake

they should be able to tolerate this activity for longer and longer periods

tummy time helps build babies muscle strength and prepares them for being

able to slide on their bellies and then crawl

it's important to provide frequent position changes for the babies in your

or one place to another with a few different toys provides a whole new

you can encourage and direct some movement for your babies even if they

try to get the baby to continue the motion even after you stop moving the

after the leg movement, gently stretch the baby's arms up and over his head

put the toy within easy reach and give praise when the object is touched

you might even sing a little song to the baby during this activity

as a caregiver there are times when you need to interact with adults who come into

and yet care for the children remains your priority

notice how the caregiver is able to engage with the adult

and making the child the center of attention

giving babies opportunities to move is critical to their overall health

early brain development and development of social skills

and motor skills and the maintenance of the healthy weight

how have these motion strategies changed the children's day?

oh, the children are so happy when they are able to move around and explore their environment

can and should these strategies be used with children who have special needs?

yes of course they should be used with children that have special needs

because those children need that as well. They need the

physical activity.  All children need physical activity and sometimes we may have to adapt some

of the activities but all children should be able to have that opportunity

does it take additional funds to implement these strategies?

the simplest things are just things that we use in the classroom that are free

how have you involved the parents in your movement activities?

me being silly with the kids. See me running. See me crawling after them on the floor

kind of eases the parents into, oh this is okay

this is something that's appropriate.  You know, they do it at their school and it's okay to do at home as well
