Know how to provide safe stimulating activities for a young baby

Case Study

Your baby is five months old and seems very content, but is not very active. She sleeps a lot and when she is awake she lies quietly and does not make much noise, or move very much.
  1. What can you do to encourage more movement and get your baby to start enjoying more things?
  2. How will you plan your day and how will you monitor whether or not you are being successful?
It is rare that there is just one way to respond to a scenario or situation, so do not consider that the responses you have to the above scenario will be judged as right or wrong. Share your scenario with a work colleague or friend and ask them to tell you whether they think you have responded appropriately. Ask them to challenge your response if necessary. You do not need to submit this task for assessment unless asked to do so by your assessor.
