Six Proven Steps To Get Your Baby Crawling In No Time

Very few parents realize how powerful child development
benefits can be unlocked by encouraging their baby to crawl
at an earlier age.

You may not be aware that encouraging your baby to crawl
holds an important key to better future performance. But
whether you're aware of it or not, the fact is... you should
seriously consider persuading a baby to crawl at an earlier
age.

Crawling is one of the very basic child activities that must
be carried out to get every bit of stimulation needed for
optimum development.

Crawling helps your baby to:
- become stronger
- develop vital motor skills
- learn the surroundings faster
- improve visual skills
- boost physical abilities

Given enough time, baby crawling may happen instinctively.
But crawling may also not happen naturally if your child
doesn't endure lying on his/her stomach.

In fact, babies with poor head control often don't like
lying on their stomachs. Just ask yourself what you will do
if you're looking at the carpet the whole time.
What this means is that even at this early age Baby may then
be developing at a slower rate than normal.

Now, there is an easy yet powerful and proven technique to
stimulate baby crawling. In fact, it's so powerful it will
surely speed up any baby to crawl. In essence, this technique
makes the Baby more tolerable to stomach lying.
Best of all, you can safely use it on babies as young as 3
months old.

Here's the exact technique to get your baby crawling in six
easy steps;
Step 1. Place your baby on his/her stomach on a
carpet on the floor.

Step 2. Gently hold Baby by the elbows and draw
both elbows towards Baby's body as if Baby wants to lie on
his/her elbows. Continue to provide support.

Step 3. Measure, or try to get some measure of the
distance between the floor and the Baby's upper body in the
supported position.

Step 4. Get a roller with approximately the same
diameter as you've just measured. Rollers are soft
cylindrical shaped toys... preferably solid. You do get
inflatable ones, but solid ones normally last much longer
and can also be a valuable aid to get Baby to sit and walk.
The roller will be placed underneath Baby's upper body for
support. It's important that you don't buy the roller too
big. Baby's elbows must still reach the floor when lying on
the roller.

Step 5. Put the roller underneath Baby's upper
body... arms hanging over the front of the roller. This
supported position also allows Baby to lift his/her head and
discover the surroundings.

Step 6. Get down on the floor directly in front of
Baby, face towards Baby. Now, let Baby look at your face
while you talk to, amuse and encourage Baby.
Step 6 is definitely the most important step of this
activity. And... Baby will surely endure longer sessions and
crawl sooner if you do it well.

Remember, Baby should focus on you and naturally develop a
sense of using both legs for support. In no time you'll see
Baby supporting the body on both knees and straight arms...
ready to crawl.
The power of this roller lies in helping to raise Baby's
upper body and to look at the surroundings... all while
lying down.

And guess what?
You only need to spend 3-5 minutes daily to get results. But
better still... results will come even faster if you can do
more than one session per day.
The trouble is, that many parents are reluctant to buy any
educational toys or aids such as rollers. Too expensive is
often the criticism. But, the trick is really to ask how
many other uses can you find for the roller. In this case,
you can definitely use a roller to speed up sitting and
walking.

The bottom line is... getting your baby crawling is easy,
and critically important... yet, often neglected. But with this
easy, affordable method it's a breeze.
