How to use

During your baby’s awake time, spread the Tummy Time Mat on an even surface. When unrolling your mat for the first time- it may not be flat immediately, but will flatten out. Place your baby on his/her stomach. Follow your baby’s cues, but try to encourage at least 4-10 minutes of Tummy Time 2-3 times per day. This can gradually increase as your baby becomes stronger and more used to Tummy Time.

Never leave your baby unattended during Tummy Time

The Sensory Tummy Time Mat

Tummy Time is a very important activity for your newborn. Even though some babies may not like it, tummy time is crucial for building strength and developing muscles that will later be needed for good head control, rolling over, sitting up, crawling, and walking.

The High Contrast Tummy Time Mat has been specially developed to help your little one spend more time on their tummy. By capturing their attention with High Contrast images they not only develop their visual system, but all their other sensory fields too.

    WHY High Contrast?

    When arriving in this world, and throughout the first year of life, your baby is often overwhelmed by what they see. High Contrast Images provide a calming point of focus - something your baby can easily focus on and will love to look at. 

    Simple Black and White Images can be introduced from birth. It is an age appropriate stimulation and encourages strong neurological activity, which will literally grow and develop more areas of the brain. This, not only assists with the timely maturation of the visual and other sensory systems, but naturally creates a good foundation for learning and concentration skills.  

  • WHY Sensory Stimulation?

    A Newborn baby's brain is approximately one quarter of the size that it will one day become.

    The remarkable sensory system is already developing in the womb, but once born, all senses develop and mature at different stages.

    Regular positive sensory input cause frequent activation of synapses in sensory pathways, which results in stronger, more memorable connections. On the other hand, when pathways are not stimulated, they can start to fade away. It is therefore vital for a baby to receive positive and age appropriate sensory stimulation of all their senses from birth, as this directly influences the maturation of the sensory system and ultimately the growth of the brain.
