What you need
• Warm water, baby wash soap, vanilla extract, a straw
Simple household items. No plastic toys needed.
Why it works
Combining visual tracking with surprise scents engages multiple neural pathways at once, a rich sensory experience.
Good to know
Use only food-grade vanilla extract. Blow bubbles near your baby, not directly at their face. Avoid if your baby has sensitive skin or allergies.
