Crawling is an important action in baby’s motor development, which requires coordination of limbs and is a good sensory integration activity, and also has a good role in promoting baby’s active exploration, cognitive learning and interpersonal communication, so parents now pay great attention to baby’s crawling learning. There are generally two stages of crawling in children, the first will be creeping forward, and then the hands and knees to support up to crawl. There are many benefits of crawling, and moving in the prone position helps strengthen the arms and legs, preparing the child for future crawling on hands and knees with coordinated arm-leg movement. Crawling The child uses the abdomen as a fulcrum, touches the ground with the forearms, and pulls the torso forward. The legs can also alternate or move together. The prerequisite for this training is that the child does not resist the prone position, raises his head 90°, and his chest can leave the bed. Training method: With the child in the prone position, place a toy of his choice about 1 meter in front of him, push the child’s feet forward to reach the toy, or move his arms in a crawling motion pattern. Crawling on hands and knees helps to develop the strength of both shoulders and legs, and the development of alternating patterns on the opposite side during crawling helps the child to transform from crawling to walking. How to train: With the child in a prone position and forearms supported on the floor, pick up the child’s torso so that he is in a hands and knees position. You can also use a large bath towel to wrap around the child’s abdomen and torso, and lift the ends of the towel, and when the child is on his hands and knees, gently shake the towel and gradually reduce the help to lift the child to four-point support. Put an attractive toy or bottle in front of the child at 1.5 to 1.8 meters and let him take it, demonstrate him to crawl with his hands, push his feet to give some help or guide its upper limbs. The ability to crawl on hands and knees can also be promoted by climbing over large objects such as pillows, rolled up blankets or adult legs. The practice of crawling can be done gradually and not too exhausting at once. Especially at the beginning it is important to let him experience success by helping him so as to arouse the baby’s interest. At this age, it is a normal developmental process to show backward crawling or spinning before learning to creep and crawl.
