Everyday Interactions Transform Into Sensory Adventures for Healthy Baby Development

Numerous studies have substantiated the importance of regular touch and massage for babies in various aspects of their life, including physiological, cognitive, emotional, and social development. Specifically, routine massage has been shown to enhance cognitive performance and heighten alertness and attentiveness. This contact forms the cornerstone of a baby's first emotional connections, which lay the groundwork for later stages of emotional and intellectual development.

Touch:

Scent:
