Crawling is an important action in baby’s motor development, which requires coordination of limbs and natural combination of vision and movement, and is a good sensory integration activity, which also has a good promotion effect on baby’s active exploration, cognitive learning and interpersonal communication, so parents nowadays attach great importance to baby’s crawling learning. How can I help my baby crawl? There are generally two stages of crawling in children, the first will be crawling forward, and then crawling supported on hands and knees. There are many benefits of creeping and crawling, and moving in the prone position helps strengthen the arms and legs, preparing the child for future arm-leg coordination movement when crawling on hands and knees. 1.Crawl The child takes the abdomen as the fulcrum, the forearms touch the ground and pull the torso forward. Both legs can also alternate or move together. To carry out this training prerequisite is that the child does not resist prone position, head up 90 °, the chest can leave the bed. Training methods: child prone position, in front of him about 1 meter put a toy he likes, push the child’s feet to let him reach the toy forward, or follow the crawling movement pattern to move his arms. 2.Crawling on hands and knees helps develop the strength of both shoulders and legs, and the development of alternating patterns on the opposite side during crawling helps the child transform from crawling to walking. Training method: 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 supported 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. You can also promote the ability to crawl on hands and knees 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. It is especially important to let him experience success by helping him at the beginning so that her interest can be aroused. At this age, it is a normal developmental process to crawl backwards or turn around before learning to crawl. Warm tips: 7-8 months with language, toys can not lead to crawl, plus points to promote crawl: elbow support position, a forearm slightly forward hand back up, fix the hand while point pressure on the side of the shoulder well point (nipple is above the shoulder line intersection), trigger the upper limb force; at the same time or slightly back flex the opposite side of the lower limb, support the thumb toe stirrups at the same time point pressure on the side of the Yongquan point (plantar middle front 1/3 and back 2/3 intersection), alternating left and right.
