Dinosaurs Week 1 Lesson Plan - 1 - 2 - 3 Learn Curriculum

Sound Off
As infant gets older, new sounds from unexpected places
engage her attention. In addition, at this age she's starting to
understand that a movement made here results in a sound
made there. Coming up with novel ways to produce sound is
as easy as rummaging through your kitchen cabinets.
Appropriate for: 4 to 8 months
Skills developed: Auditory
What you'll need: Various kitchen implements
Give raspberry blowing a new twist by filling a glass or a clear
plastic cup with water and blowing bubbles into it with a straw.
Your baby will not only like the sight of the bubbles, but she'll
also find the noise most intriguing. (Don't let her handle the
glass or straw herself.)
Swirl a metal spatula or spoon around inside a metal bowl for
another captivating sound. Crinkle some tinfoil or wax paper,
set off the kitchen timer, or open and shut the trash can. As
long as the infant is supervised, there's no reason the sounds
of the kitchen shouldn't entertain her safely.
