3 months is a small node in the baby's development, to this month you will find that the baby can suddenly sleep for several hours at night, some babies eat, sleep, play and other daily life every day, and gradually develop a law that can be found, and the mother with the baby is also relaxed a lot.
As the baby's activity time gradually increases, mothers can also start early education at this time. The significance of the existence of early education is to cultivate children's various abilities, such as big movement ability, surprise movement ability and cognitive ability development. The form of early education for 3-month-old babies is very simple, and it is very simple for mothers to learn.
The first set of pictures: turning over training - big movement ability
"Three flips, six sits, seven climbs, weekly will walk", this is a summary of the development of large movements in infants. The developmental significance of large movements is an important sign of normal development of the nervous system, and it is also the basic ability to survive and develop. Babies will have their first big action development at 3 months: turning over. Parents master some small skills to turn over, and it is necessary to help the baby master this skill.
Turnaround training method:
(1) Put a playful toy on the left side of the baby, then put his right leg on the left leg, and then put one of his hands between the chest and abdomen, gently support his right shoulder, and push the baby to the left behind the back, and the baby will turn to the left;
(2) Let the baby stay on the bed in a lying position on the side, and hold the toys that the baby is interested in to tease the baby to turn over on both sides;
(3) Parents show the baby how to turn over and stimulate the baby's imitation ability;
Precautions for training your baby to turn over
- When training the baby to turn over, the baby should first learn how to turn over from the supine position to the side lying position, and then return to the supine position, and then guide the baby to turn over after the turning posture is familiar;
- Train your baby to turn over 2-3 times a day, each time training for 2-3 minutes;
- Do not train to turn over within 1 hour after your baby has just finished feeding, so as not to cause your baby to vomit.
The second set of pictures: Touch toys - fine motor skills
The so-called fine movements are the actions produced by the baby using his own small hands and the small muscles on his fingers, mainly holding, pinching, grasping, bending, holding, turning and so on. The development of fine motor shows that it looks like a muscle movement, but it is actually very helpful for the baby's intellectual development. The 3-month fine motor training is mainly based on "grasping":
Touching toys is a way to train fine motor skills:
The mother holds the baby and has the baby lying on his back, facing the mother, or you can let the baby lie between the mother's knees. The mother smiles and looks at the baby to attract the baby's attention, and then the mother holds a small plush ball in front of the baby's eyes with her hand, and then gently places the plush ball on the baby's face and neck to stimulate the baby's desire to grab the ball with her hands.
Objective: This training method can train the baby's hand-eye coordination, and the second is to promote the development of the baby's fine movements.
Notes:
(1) The hairball can be replaced by other toys that are easy to attract the baby's attention, but not too big, and it is appropriate for the baby to be able to grasp and touch it with his hands; like when I gave the baby early education before, I bought this one

The third set of figures: Find a mother - cognitive ability
"Cognitive ability", as the name suggests, is the process of human cognition of things and processing of external things. For babies in infancy, their cognitive abilities are manifested as the ability to recognize things around them. How can a 3-month-old baby do a good job of cognitive training? The method is simple.
"Find a Mom" cognitive training method
The father first holds the baby, so that the mother, grandfather, grandmother and the surrounding neighbors and relatives are standing opposite the baby. Dad slowly walked past these people with the baby in his arms and watched the baby's reaction. Generally speaking, the baby will show a happy expression and dance when approaching the mother's side.
Objective: To allow the baby to learn to distinguish the characteristics of the people around him, such as smell, clothing, face, voice, etc., and enhance the baby's recognition and cognitive ability.
Note: In the early stage of cultivating cognitive ability, it is very important that parents accompany each other, which will not only give the baby more sense of security and advice on the world's trust; and when they grow up (after 1 year old), the baby with sufficient security has a stronger desire to explore the world and has more benefits for the development of intelligence.
