Stellar Caterpillar

As children, most of us impatiently watched the caterpillar, day after day, wanting to see that butterfly! First she crawled around with all those legs, then she hid in a cocoon for weeks and weeks where it looked like nothing was happening, and then, fi-nal-ly…those beautiful wings poked out and we watched her fly! Like caterpillar, baby goes through a sequence of developmental phases before she walks and runs. For both baby and caterpillar each stage has its purpose! This blog explores what each movement phase teaches your baby and how to gently assist the learning of every new skill. Then baby emerges from infancy prepared to master the world of the upright!
