The Senses * The ActiviTot™ developmental gym develops the senses by stimulating hearing, sight and touch. * The soothing sounds of nature emitted by the mirror and the various sounds made by the vertical toys, the dangling toys and the activities spread around the mat, sooth and entertain baby, and encourage her aural development. * The colorful vertical toys and simple colorful drawings draw baby’s attention and provide the necessary stimulation for developing her vision. * In addition, the range of materials such as the various types of fabrics and hard and soft plastics help stimulate baby's sense of touch as she holds the various items with her hand and explores them with her mouth. * The ActiviTot™ developmental gym develops coordination between the senses as baby explores the colorful toy in her hand and mouth, feeling the different textures and listening to the sounds. Gross Motor Skills * The ActiviTot™ developmental gym is the ultimate solution for encouraging baby to lift her head – the special pillow is designed to support baby and help her to remain on her tummy, strengthening her neck and shoulder muscles. * The musical mirror that is placed in front of baby, at a comfortable angle, encourages her to keep looking at her reflection and stay in this position on her tummy. * The colorful toys in front of her stimulate her attention, helping her to remain on her tummy for a longer period, continuing to strengthen her neck and shoulder muscles. * From the sixth month, baby will begin to reach out and grab at the vertical toys or strike at the mirror, practicing to lean on one hand and shift her weight from one hand to the other. * The arches and toys can be placed in different positions around the rim of the mat - encouraging your baby to turn around to see them, helping develop her crawling skills. Fine Motor Skills * The toys hanging within arms reach encourage baby to reach out and strike them; first randomly and gradually more intentionally so she practices and develops eye-hand coordination. * Later, she will bat at and hold the hanging and vertical toys (pulling, shaking and so on), and play with the activities on the mat (pulling the ear, pressing the horn and more). Cognition * The ActiviTot™ developmental gym provides many experiences for understanding cause & effect, as baby strikes the toy in front of her (vertical or hanging) causing it to sway, or strikes the mirror in order to hear the music. Object Permanence * From the fifth month, babies begin to relate to the disappearance and reappearance of objects from their field of vision. * The ActiviTot™ developmental gym provides baby the opportunity to experience objects appearing and disappearing; as she lifts the rabbit’s ear or the leaf on the mat, the rabbit’s face appears and disappears.
