Eebee Baby

Having not had a lot of experience with babies until I had my son, I was at a loss when it came to entertaining him. For some parents this may come very easily, but I was stumped. Outside of peek-a-boo and tickle monster, I didn't have a clue. But when I stumbled upon Eebee Baby I was hooked.

It may sound funny to hear an adult say that they are hooked to an infants program, but I couldn't get enough. Each episode I watched gave me more and more ideas of how to play with my son. I also found out that I was doing something right, I was playing with him.

I really didn't know the important role that playing takes in an infants development. I mean, I have the flash cards and the books and the videos, but none of it says much about playing. Eebee taught me that babies learn by doing. The following is taken from Eebee.com,

"Babies will instinctively:

Take initiative and act on their natural curiosity

Make clear choices among different materials and experiences

Vary their strategies and try different approaches

Persist at a goal and stick to a task

Share their discoveries and seek social interaction

These are the real basic skills of your baby's first years and these are the hallmarks of great thinkers and achievers. The research is clear that the best way for babies to grow and strengthen these skills-the skills they need to succeed in life-is to play."

So I became a play partner. I have rolled around on the floor, built and climbed pillow mountains and had fun spilling Cheerios all over my carpet! Eebee baby has been a amazing tool for me and I have never had more fun.

My son has just turned a year old and he loves to watch Eebee. He dances to the music and claps right along. He has grown and learned so much this year and he amazes me more each day. He is creative, logical, curious and absolutely hilarious. We go on adventures together everyday and I have Eebee to thank for that.
