Difficulty: 4/5
Time: 3 mins
Development Goal: The shift of baby's sight along with the paper aeroplane can train his visual sensitivity and develop the knowledge of existence of space.
Personality Goal: Focus is a very important foundation of observational learning. This will help your baby in future to cope with the stress in school.
Preparation: Make a paper aeroplane with bright coloured materials
How to play: When picking up the aeroplane, tell the baby "This is a red aeroplane." Gently throw the aeroplane to catch baby's attention. Ask baby "Where is the red paper aeroplane?" If baby's attention is already on the fallen aeroplane, say "Yes, there it is!". If not, point to the location and say "See! There is the paper aeroplane!" Repeat with planes of other colours.
Daddy’s participation: Place the paper aeroplane on baby's hand and assist to throw the aeroplane. This will engage baby and he will in turn have a deeper impression of the game. Hand-eye coordination is also strengthened.
