Hello mamas and welcome back to the Pregnancy with Physio Laura podcast. 

Today we are kicking off with episode 5, our final episode, in our Kids Physio series, diving into baby toys, gadgets and activity centres. We chat about the different options you may be exposed to such as Jolly Jumpers, Baby Bumbos and standing activity stations, we talk about time and frequency to use these devices, why variety is key and the one option that Nicole doesn’t recommend you use for a developing baby. 

This is episode 5 of a 5 part Kids Physio series with the incredible Nicole Pates, a titled paediatric physiotherapist.

And if you haven’t already listened to the first 4 episodes in this series, make sure you go back and give them a listen. We talk about the importance of play when it comes to achieving baby milestones, and ways in which we can find more joy in our parenting journey. We also discuss the different ways to do tummy time, how to encourage your child to crawl by making slight alterations in your environment and everything you need to consider when purchasing a baby carrier.

Now let’s get into episode 5 of our 5 part Kids Physio series chatting all about baby toys and activity centres and whether they are worth spending your money on or not. Enjoy!
