In the first years of your baby’s life, you want to encourage their curiosity in a fun and friendly atmosphere, as every moment spent with your child is priceless. Sensory play that supports your baby by stimulating their senses is a great solution.

Sight can be stimulated in a variety of ways. You can introduce games in your everyday routine, for example, by turning bath time into a great adventure. Colorful bubbles may be a feast for the eyes. They float and shimmer with a myriad of colors, and what’s more – are very easy to make. You only need water, a bubble solution and, optionally, a dye that is safe for children. Your little one can blow them, smash them or just watch!

The senses of smell and taste are interconnected – it may be a good idea to stimulate both with sensory play when preparing a meal. Guessing what ingredients were used without looking is a great way to improve senses, try new flavors and engage your child in the cooking process. Participation will be rewarded with a full stomach!

Touch is mainly associated with hands, because hands are highly innervated. Our feet, however, are also great at receiving stimuli. Invite you kid to a real journey on a sensory track. You can make it from things around you – scraps of fabric, feathers, flat buttons or even bubble wrap. Your child can walk on the track, examine it with their foot or guess what it is they’re standing on. They should not look.

The last but no least important sense is hearing. You can stimulate it by listening to the music and nursery rhymes or by less conventional methods, such as filling balloons or latex gloves with various items, e.g. buckwheat or buttons. Kids will be able to create their own music, guess what is inside the items or just soak up the sounds.

All such games not only support the child’s development, but also create tender moments and let you spend time together in an interesting way.

A well-prepared bath is sure to be a lot of fun! It is important to create a nice atmosphere for your kid and provide inspiration for a creative play. You can do it by stimulating all senses of your child, while providing them with a sense of security and a great deal of tenderness. Bobini Fun products were created to make the shower or bath time more fun. They are colorful and easy to use – and smell nice! Bath has never been this fun.

Preparation

Before you invite your sprog to play, you need to prepare all necessary accessories: a towel, shampoo, body wash or gel, pajamas to change into and favorite rubber balls, ducks and fish for your child to play with. Do not forget about ensuring optimal temperature of water and the room, as we lose body heat through our heads and the baby can get cold if the temperature in the bathroom is not high enough.

Inspiring stories and fantastic play

It’s time for an evening fun! Try using Bobini Fun products to play. Interesting characters on labels, such as a surfing girl hippo, a scientist conducting experiments or a joyful firefighter that pours a stream of raspberry liquid, encourage children to come up with compelling stories inspired also by the smell of juicy fruits and favorite sweets. When asked to play, your little one is sure to come up with their own games. You can also take advantage of heaps of bubbles produced by Bobini Fun cosmetics and invite your child to make fancy hair or sculpt favorite animals.

Some of the product color the water, so you can ask your child to chase toys in the colorful depths of bath water or pour water into various cups.

Child’s skin care

It is worth noting that Bobini Fun cosmetics have a skin-neutral pH and were dermatologically tested. Their major advantage is that they leave the skin moisturized and smooth.

Children need to play outside regardless of the weather! Each season has its challenges for the parent – it may be a sweltering heat, freezing temperatures or rain. How to properly dress your child for going outside to avoid them overheating or getting cold?

How to dress your child during the cold months?

Taking children for walks is recommended the whole year, but how to dress them when it’s cold outside? Contrary to what you may think, children are pretty resistant to cold and when the temperature is too low for them, they inform their parent or guardian by crying. Unlike overheating, which lowers immunity, cold may toughen your child up. Obviously, extremes should be avoided, especially in winter. With infants, the rule of “one layer more than me” works perfectly. Of course, you should not take it literally and dress your baby in two padded jackets or additional fleece tops – when you wear short sleeves, your child should have long sleeves and when you wear pants, you may dress your child in tights in addition to their body suit. You should also remember to check your child’s temperature by feeling the nape of their neck. Hands, nose or feet lose body heat fast, as they are exposed to external factors, but a nape is a body part that best reflects the actual body temperature of your baby.

How to dress your child in warmer months?

In summer, children should wear airy clothes. When the weather is especially hot, a diaper or pampers alone will do. When going outside, however, it might be a good idea to dress the baby in thin, breathable shirt and pants so as to protect them from sunshine. The fabric of the clothes is the most important. It must be light and airy – preferably from natural materials. They should also wear a hat or a headscarf. It also should be thin and breathable. When you go out on a hot day, you should remember to put on an SPF filter cream and avoid direct sunlight that may cause overheating or even a sunstroke.

Bedtime can be a tedious part of a day both for the parent and the child, who – when exhausted – often becomes more grumpy. That’s why nighttime rituals, such as a fixed family dinner time, relaxing bath and gently putting the child to sleep, are so important. An evening together is also a great time for quiet educational games, such as storytelling or reading books. Additionally, creating a routine is the first step towards bringing up an independent child.

Calming your little one down is crucial

All electronic devices that emit blue light should be turned off, and unnecessary stimuli eliminated, two hours before bedtime. It also might be a good idea to engage your child in getting ready for bed – let them choose a body wash, a bedtime story or a set of pajamas. It will help them to bond with the parent and calm down, teaching them at the same time to carry out everyday activities on their own.

How to improve the evening with a bath?

A bath is great for setting the rhythm for the evening, and helps the child to unwind before going to sleep. Let your child choose their favorite bathing toys or cosmetics. Encourage them to wash themselves. Of course, we must carefully choose bath products that clean thoroughly and gently and soothe skin irritation at the same time. These requirements are met by Bobini Kids cosmetics with skin-neutral pH. Additionally, each Bobini Kids label has an interesting picture. During the bath or afterwards, you can encourage your kid to come up with a story for the picture. It’s a great way to stimulate the child’s imagination and an interesting way for them to spend some energy before going to sleep.

At the end, prompt your kiddo to dry themselves with a towel and put on their pajamas.

Ending the evening with a good story

As we all know, reading books has a huge impact on the development of a child’s imagination and speaking skills. You can do it from the very first days of their lives. For an older child, it is an important and calming routine. Let them choose their favorite story or a nursery rhyme.

After such an evening, your child will sleep like an angel!
