Reflections

November 12, 2012 by Kate Leave a Comment

Babies and young children love to look at themselves in the mirror. Possum in particular!

You’d be pleased to know that this pleasure has many great developmental benefits. When a baby looks at their reflection it helps them to do the following – 
* teaches them how to focus on objects
* tracking images
* explores their capabilities
Looking in mirrors can also help to promote social and emotional development. 
Here I have allowed Possum to look and play with her reflection in the car window.
We also do this at shop windows too! 

It is a daily tradition that Possum and her Daddy have a play in the mirror 
after she has just had her bath. Sometimes mummy gets to feature too! 

How many mirrors do you have in your house?
