Sound and movement attract a baby’s attention; if a toy is placed almost within reach of babies their movements become more animated.

Sensory development in babies can be facilitated through toys that provide opportunities for them to experience sounds, visuals and textures. Spatial skills can also be enhanced when playing games that require concentration, quick responses and finely tuned motor skills. Once babies are either crawling or walking their mobility gives them more opportunities to explore their world. When young babies watch a mobile they are constantly moving their head, arms, legs and even their mouths in response to the movement of the toy.br /> From an early age babies use touch to investigate their world; as they learn to reach they begin to run their tongue and lips over toys and then look at them. Infants also learn about the links between sights, sounds and feel of toys when these are demonstrated by adults.

As babies develop their auditory abilities narrow so that eventually babies are only sensitive to those sound categories specific to their native language. Through imitative play this cute book will encourage baby’s first words with a simple story and promote early reading with the familiar book format. Imaginative and social pretend play is beneficial for children as it allows them to explore different ways of viewing the world.
Young children playing with toys use their imagination to invent scenarios and play out the consequences. The grasping, at first, is quite clumsy but through repetition, and across time, infants become adept at grasping and develop fine motor skills. There are social skills involved in language acquisition such as realising that it is necessary to wait until the other person has finished speaking. In a study where we observed children playing in a nursery we found that young children engaged in imaginative play, often using the toys in unexpected ways.

During the first year of life infants’ visual development is rapid and they begin to identify objects through shape, colour and texture.Giving babies plenty of opportunities to hear music, singing, rhythm and talk enhances their learning and prepares them for the social world where they will talk, sing, play and listen to music. After the first year, infants adopt the ‘pincer grasp’ where they use their thumb and index finger to grasp even very tiny objects. Manipulative features on the big engine include an extending ladder, big press button and a sliding fire extinguisher. Adults can facilitate babies’ language development by playing with them, focussing on particular toys, reading books and naming everyday objects.
