Good games to play with my seven month old baby?

Question

I have a seven month old daughter. I'm a part time mom to her. I was wondering what would be some good games to play with her before she goes for naps that would be good for her language, congitive, physical development ,that will help to talk and learn what her body parts are. Thanks...

Answer 1

My son is 8 months and we do a lot of floor playing. I'll sit beside him and roll a ball and we will both crawl to the ball. We have foam blocks that he currently chews on mostly. But he has a blast picking them up and waving them around.



I sing to him a lot. Normal kid nursery songs, songs on the radio, or corny songs I make up. He loves it.



We play patty cake.



He loves peek a boo. He now can cover his head with his blanket or toy to cover his eyes.



Reading stories or talking to your child will help with talking. I often hold one sided conversations with myself with my son (that so didn't make since). I will talk him through setting out dinner, cleaning house, point out animals, shapes, etc on the page of a book.



For body parts I use bath time for it telling them each of their body parts as I wash. Or like with peek a boo I'll say "Kam-Kam hide your eyes" and cover his eyes. If I tickle him I'll tell him the body part I'm tickling.

At seven months old, you don't need to worry about her development to much. She is learning and experiencing new things everyday just by living. Just play with her. Peek-a-boo is always fun. The things you do naturally like tickling, laughing, throwing her in the air, dancing with her, and nuzzling your nose in her little neck are all fun things that are will help with her development. Interaction is key. Just have fun!

Answer 3

My 8 month old son love to play peeka boo and the itsy bitsy spider with hands. He also loves when we do head shoulders knees and toes and abc's in sign language. What i realized is that sometimes you just gotta think back to what you liked that your mother did with you growing up to figure out what your child will most likely like.

Answer 4

I would say just talk to her like she was someone your age, meaning no baby talk I heard that as much as you talk to her she will pickup all that vocabulary and actually you'd be helping her with her language skills. And I remember at nursery school they show the names of body parts through that song " head, shoulders, knees and toes..." good luck.

Answer 5

Just practice saying simple words with her, like Apple



Or walk around with her while holding her hands so she doesnt fall, it will get her tired and hopefully she'll fall asleep for nap time

Answer 6

um peek a boo, a memory game with house hold items so she knows what the different things are, and a game ware you would say something and she would have to repeat it
