In the Little Play app, this activity appears in week 45 of your baby's personalized plan.
How to play
1
Sit your baby at the bottom of a staircase.
2
Place a toy on the second step.
3
Stay right behind them as they try to crawl up to reach it.
What you need
• Nothing at all. Just the two of you.
Why it works
Climbing stairs builds tremendous leg and core strength while introducing a new physical challenge.
Good to know
Always stay directly behind your baby during stair climbing. Use a baby gate on stairs at all other times. Practice only on carpeted stairs if possible.
