Essentials of Baby Play
Working with Baby Sensory, we’re pleased to announce a new support resource ‘Essentials of Baby Play‘
Play is fundamental to healthy brain development. It can be quiet or noisy, energetic or passive, social or non-social, relaxed or serious, imaginative or purposeful. Play may or may not require toys or equipment. This new resource, which you can find here, will help provide you with some ideas to help you capture your baby’s attention and have a bit of fun together.
This resource uses the research based material of Baby Sensory and follows the resource on ‘Supporting Development‘
These research based and practical resources join the other examples of support and education material that we’ve created (with the help of graduate parents of a NICU and/or SCBU). View our support resources here: littlemiraclestrust.org.nz/support

Thanks so much for sharing your personal story!
We get a lot of positive feedback from families in a neonatal unit who read these stories and feel strength, hope and positivity knowing that they are not alone going through these experiences and feeling certain emotions.
If you would like to discuss sharing the story of your neonatal journey, we’d love to hear from you.
