Infant Room - December Update

We have had a great December!  The beginning of December was nice and warm and we built an igloo to crawl in and out of.  It was interesting to look up and see the snow over top of us!  When the sun came out it melted so our next project is to build a quinzee.  We will pile up the snow and pat it down into a big pile and tehn dig it out so we can play in it - be sure to watch for it in our yard as we begin this!

We did lots of Christmas activities over the past month.  We made decorations using our fine motor skills to glue, paint, color and to place stickers.  They were beautifully displayed in our room!

Giving your baby a bath

Time it right: Don't give your baby a real bath until the umbilical cord stump falls off. Sponge baths are okay until then. Gather supplies: A baby tub (or just the sink), a washcloth or two, cotton balls (optional), baby soap, a towel, and a fresh diaper. Get ready: Heat the room if it's chilly, and run an inch or two of warm water (about 90 degrees Fahrenheit) into the tub or sink Take the plunge: Undress your baby and gradually place her in the tub on her back. Support her head and neck with one hand. Keep her comfy: Gently pour cupfuls of water over your baby's body throughout the bath so she doesn't get cold. Clean all over: Use a washcloth, cotton balls, or your hand to gently wash your baby's face and body. No need to scrub or use much soap. Read More

Plaque also causes gingivitis (say: jin-juh-vi-tis), which is gum disease that can make your gums red, swollen, and sore. Your gums are those soft pink tissues in your mouth that hold your teeth in place. If you don't take care of your teeth, cavities and unhealthy gums will make your mouth very, very sore. Eating meals will be difficult. And you won't feel like smiling so much. Before Toothpaste Was Invented We're lucky that we know so much now about taking care of our teeth.
