Show notes::
- What are the benefits of establishing routines and rhythm for the baby and parent? How does it help in raising a playful tot?
- Babies are active and alert for such short periods of time what’s the best way to be playful with them?
- We had a really successful time during nappy ( diaper) changing when my son was kicking his legs and he kicked the plastic wet wipes container. Bath time is traditionally the time for play with babies but what about other times?

The book is full of bite-sized advice and practical ideas about baby. The title says it all. It’s the type of book I wish I had found when mine were a baby. It would make a great baby shower gift or birth gift and there’s lots of advice for that important first year…just for the reassurance alone. You can find Blythe’s book in all major bookshops.
