Ladybird Baby Touch: Tummy Time

Part of Ladybird's best-selling Baby Touch series, Baby Touch Tummy Time is an innovative, colourful, three-dimensional book with a variety of touch-and-feel areas and peepo holes, specifically designed to stimulate and entertain babies during their daily tummy time sessions.

Open the book and tie the covers together with the attached ribbon. Once tied together, Baby Touch Tummy Time sits securely on the floor or on a playmat and is sturdy enough for babies to interact with without it falling over. There are three bright, bold sections for your baby to play with and explore. Direct them to the touch-and-feel areas, make the animal noises and encourage your baby to lift their head and reach and stretch towards the book.

The benefits of daily tummy time, where a baby is placed on their stomachs for around ten minutes at a time, has been shown to be developmentally beneficial in a number of ways. These including strengthening babies' heads, necks and backs, developing key motor skills and preventing the flattening of the back of babies' heads formed from long periods spent lying on their backs.

Baby Touch Tummy Time is perfect for encouraging a happy and interesting tummy time for your baby!
