Lets Play Catch
Don't expect perfect aim - just perfect fun!

Description:
As your baby gets older (around fifteen months), try playing catch. A partially deflated beach ball is easy to grasp and good for a beginner. Throwing and catching a ball takes considerable coordination. You can also try batting a balloon back and forth.

Step by Step:
1.Instruct your baby to hold her hands out.
2.Gently toss the ball into her arms.
3.Demonstrate how to cradle the ball and hold on to it.
4.Show her how to toss it.
5.Count out loud as you toss the ball back and forth.
