Texture floor time

Hoe doe je deze activiteit

Create a safe floor space with different textures for your child to explore during tummy time or back play. Use a soft blanket, textured mat, or even a safe wooden board. Let them touch and move across different surfaces. This encourages movement and sensory exploration while building motor skills.

Waarom het werkt

Varied sensory experiences during movement activities support both motor and cognitive development. Physical activity combined with sensory engagement enhances brain function and developmental outcomes (de Greeff et al., 2018). Creating diverse, positive movement experiences in infancy establishes neural pathways that support both physical competence and cognitive skills. Research demonstrates that early physical activity patterns predict sustained activity levels and psychological wellbeing throughout life (Jaekel, 2024).

Tips voor ouders

Ensure all materials are clean and safe for mouthing, as your child will likely explore with their mouth too. Stay at floor level with your child. Your presence makes the experience more engaging and you can encourage reaching and movement.
