We are long overdue to show off one of the amazing kiddos that attends classes at Babies On The MOVE! Today we are featuring this sweetheart, Malcolm. We first met Malcolm’s mom, Sarah, in the summer of 2016 when she started attending classes with their first child, Dotty. You may recognize Dotty, as she has been a feature baby herself! We have now had many Babies On The MOVE alumni return to visit us while their parents are attending class again with a younger sibling, and we ABSOLUTELY LOVE when they do!!! It is fun to see how the big siblings help to motivate and also sometimes challenge the little ones’ movement. From trying to keep up, to working on their balance when getting bumped into sometimes, it is obvious that a big sibling enriches the environment for their young siblings motor exploration!
Sarah and Malcolm started attending classes in December 2018, when he was just barely 2 months old. Even that early on, Malcolm was a laid back, content baby who seemed to be happy pretty much all the time. He also had some pretty amazing hair and those cheeks that make you just want to snuggle him! He was a tummy time rock star from the beginning, just like his sister. She came to class with him one month and introduced him to her love of crawling through things! He followed in her footsteps and mastered crawling through the tunnel in no time! We have so enjoyed getting to know this wonderful family and supporting them through the early stages of their children’s motor development.
““With one successful Babies on the Move alumnus under our belt, we wanted to ensure that we were giving Malcolm’s development the same attention as our first! The classes are so helpful and reassuring. Becca and Rachel are so great at helping to address concerns and giving fun tips on how to play with our kids in ways that aid their movement.””
