Physical Literacy Skills for 3 Month Old Babies

Start teaching Physical Literacy to babies beginning at 3 months??? YES!
I am pleased to announce that through Gymtrix I have partnered with Sassy Baby Toys to develop an instructional DVD for their newly released Rock Star Developmental Gym. The product is now available in all Target stores. The Rock Star Developmental Gym is for babies age 3 to 6 months and features multiple sensory toys and movement challenges for baby. The Gymtrix DVD included with the product teaches parents activities that they can enjoy with their baby to increase fine and gross motor skills. This provides bonding time with parent and baby, and developes positive emotional associations with physical movement. Babies are eager to learn how to manage their little bodies and parents can be their teachers by following the activities.
As a Physical Education professional, it has been my lifelong quest to help people master and enjoy Physical Literacy skills. In over 35 years of teaching I have learned that it is never to early (or too late) to begin. Starting early in life builds skills, confidence, and also builds a network of brain connections that will maximize learning potential.
I am delighted to partner with Sassy Baby Toys in the release of the Rock Star Developmental Gym. Sassy Baby Toys is an ideal partner for Gymtrix because of their vision and mission to educate parents and provide the very best developmental toys for babies.
Remember that it is never too early to begin learning, and remember to keep moving. Rock on!
