Feel the grass: a play idea for 6 to 9 months

You need: a blanket, a patch of grass.

1. Spread a blanket at the edge of some grass.
2. Sit your baby on it, near the grass.
3. Let them touch the grass with their hands and bare feet.
4. Say words for it: "Tickly grass. Cool grass."

Builds: thinking and problem solving and language and talking. New textures underfoot are a whole new thing to explore.

Safety: Check the patch for small sticks, stones and litter first, and watch for hands going to the mouth.
