Does your baby love bubbles? Do you have a picture like this of them enjoying them? Pop it in the comments if you do - we just love the look on those little faces at bubble time, they really are magic!⚪🔵

Bubbles are a simple and inexpensive activity to enjoy with your baby, or toddler, but, don’t let this fool you into thinking it's an activity that is low in value. Bubbles are one of the most effective, fun and educational games you can play together! 💖

Not only are bubbles so much fun for little ones to look at, chase and pop, they also have many benefits that aid their development too.

Bubbles are wonderful for visual tracking, provide the perfect practice for your little one to reach and grasp, boosting hand-eye coordination and gross motor skills, and are great for developing spatial awareness too, ✋👀🧠.

Want to come and join in the fun? Tots Play brings you lots of different activities all in one class with massage, yoga, music, sign language, sensory play and, of course, bubbles all included 😁

One of my favourite things about Tots Play is that it’s so much more than just a class to come and enjoy once a week.

From our yoga, signing, music and sensory with our Social and Discovery Tots to our full body massage and tummy time tips for our littlest babies, we provide a toolkit of techniques for you to easily replicate at home. So when you find yourself in the house and at a loss, there’s always something we’ve done that week that you can use to keep your little one entertained, and even better, help them develop and learn through play.

Now that’s - find details of my classes by heading to www.totsplay.co.uk/find-a-class and popping in your postcode xx

We love sensory play at Tots Play, it has so many benefits, and is so much fun! Here are just a few of the reasons why sensory play is a great activity to share with your baby:

🧡Sensory play builds nerve connections within your little one’s developing brain, creating neural pathways, which trigger a child’s inclination for and ability to complete more complex learning tasks
🧡Sensory play supports language development, cognitive growth, motor skills, problem solving skills, and social interaction
🧡Sensory play aids in developing and enhancing memory and creative thinking
🧡Sensory play is great for calming an anxious or frustrated child
🧡Sensory play helps children learn important concepts and properties, like hot, cold, sticky, dry, etc.

Need some simple sensory play ideas that are easy to do at home too? Come and join us at Tots Play for sensory inspiration you can easily recreate at home 🥰

We know how exhausting and hard those early new-born days are, you're not alone Mumma!

Right now, the thought of coming to a class might feel overwhelming, and you might be wondering things like, what happens if your baby cries? Answer: it doesn’t matter, babies cry, we know that!

Or you may be worrying that they will probably just sleep through the whole thing, so what’s the point? Answer: At this early stage the class is as much about you as it is your baby, come along and chat with other mummies who are going through similar things to you, get advice and share your struggles, no one's here to judge, just support 💕

Our classes are completely baby led so if your baby needs feeding or changing then we encourage you to do whatever you need to make you and baby comfortable.

When you book a Baby Development course you will also receive a booklet to take home that covers all the things we will do and discuss during the workshop, that way you can continue play times with your precious little bundle at home 🥰

Why not take that first step and find your local Tots Play class today at www.totsplay.co.uk/find-a-class - we can't wait to welcome you xx
