My son is almost 4 months. I’ve been singing to him. Our current fave is “if you’re happy and you know it” but I sing a different version… if you’re happy and you know it give us a squeal. To which he responds with a squeal

Honestly not much :rofl:
But you can read to him. Y’all can go on walks while baby wearing and you can talk about/explain everything going on. Like “oh what a pretty red bird” and “what a nice lady walking her little dog” like…legit say anything. Talking, holding and smiling at him are critical right now.
He’s also young enough y’all can sit snuggle while you watch your favorite movies and he’ll still be stoked bc Mommy snuggles are the best snuggles

Make up songs lol. I talk song to mine he loves it :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Peek a boo, songs, dangle toys he can reach and grab. Tummy time is great. Put some toys infront of him and maybe you’ll have an early crawler :wink:

We go on walks, go to story time at our library, read books, play with her toys with her. Chitty chat about everything. She also loves her activity center & playmat. We just rotate between those. But I’m with ya!! Sometimes I’m just like what the heck else can we do?!
