Do I need to entertain my newborn all day?

Baby's mind and body are constantly developing in the most amazing ways right now, and we get your enthusiasm about maximizing every moment of this key period. But the truth is, you don't need to do a heck of a lot to entertain a newborn.

What do you do with a newborn when they are awake?

Smile, stick out your tongue, and make other expressions for your infant to study, learn, and imitate. Use a favorite toy for your newborn to focus on and follow, or shake a rattle for your infant to find. Let your baby spend some awake time on his or her tummy to help strengthen the neck and shoulders.
