How To Play With Newborn Baby

Posted on January 20, 2023May 30, 2023 by Dr. Humaira Sikander

Newborn babies require a lot of love and attention, but they can also be delicate and fragile. Here are some tips for how to play with a newborn:

  1. Keep it simple: Newborns have limited vision and attention spans, so stick to simple activities like talking, singing, or reading to them.
  2. Make skin-to-skin contact: Holding your baby close to your skin can help them feel more secure and also help regulate their breathing and heart rate.
  3. Provide stimulation: Newborns can be stimulated by different colors, patterns, and textures. You can use a soft blanket, a colorful toy, or even a mobile to catch their attention.
  4. Use gentle movements: Newborns are not yet able to control their head movements, so avoid rough play or shaking. Instead, use gentle rocking or swaying motions when holding or playing with your baby.
  5. Be responsive: Observe your baby’s cues and respond to their needs. If they seem tired or fussy, it may be time to stop playing and rest.

It’s important to always be safe with a newborn and follow safety precautions such as never leaving them unattended and always supporting their head and neck when picking them up.

Remember that playtime is an opportunity to bond with your baby, so enjoy the experience and have fun!


How to play with a newborn baby girl

Playing with a newborn baby girl is similar to playing with any newborn baby. Here are a few tips specific to playing with a baby girl:

  1. Hold and cuddle her: Newborns thrive on physical touch and holding your baby girl close to your skin can help her feel more secure and calm.
  2. Talk and sing to her: Your baby girl will enjoy hearing your voice and will start to recognize it over time. Singing lullabies or nursery rhymes is a great way to bond with her.
  3. Use soft toys: Babies are drawn to bright colors, patterns and textures, so soft toys with different colors and textures can be a great way to stimulate her senses.
  4. Give her a massage: Newborns love to be touched, and gentle massage is a great way to soothe her and help her relax.
  5. Read to her: Even though she can’t understand the words yet, reading to her can help her develop her listening and language skills.

It’s important to remember that every baby is different, and to always follow safety precautions such as never leaving her unattended and always supporting her head and neck when picking her up.

As a newborn, the baby can only focus on close objects and high-contrast patterns, so keep the play simple, and interact with her with soft voice and gentle touch.
