In the second month of life the baby has stopped being a newborn. His social condition is more express, he begins to interact with the people around him especially with the mother.
Upon reaching the sixth week, the baby will cease to be a sleeper and will be more and more awake and interested in observing the things around him. Your senses are better coordinated.
In this month the stimulation of your senses will be paramount. Keep him interesting toys that he can play. When the baby is on his back, he suspends a striking object from a rope), once he has focused it, move it gently in different directions. When you have it in your arms, place it so that your visual field is as wide as possible.
It is equally important to strengthen the maternal (paternal) bond. For this keep a dialogue (monologue, rather) continuous with the baby. Let it touch your face. If he does not, he takes his hand to explore, while you are saying "this is mom (or dad)".
A daily walk is also beneficial if time permits, to establish the walk routine. This activity will expand your possibilities of perception and the development of hearing and sight.
For this month there are a series of toys in line with their development. Try to have for the little one:
An unbreakable mirror. Fabrics of different textures. A folio with 8 black and white pictures on the wall. Bells and rattles. Children's songs Rope mobiles. Soft toys. Smiling faces. Rattles to tie on the wrist.
