Introduce your baby to music, songs and play that requires fingers and toes. For example, sing songs like "Itsy-Bitsy Spider" or "This Little Piggy", which involve deliberate hand gestures.
Pre-reaching takes place when newborns (usually from birth to 3 months) make poorly coordinated swipes toward an object in front of them. This is due to the lack of muscular control and visual acuity, which means the ability to see fine details.
Environments should be designed so that infants are exposed to a variety of developmentally appropriate activities that will encourage their achievement of motor competency.
