Baby loves repetition, so go with the flow. Sing his favorite song over and over, play “This Little Piggy,” or pull out a jack-in-the-box — whatever makes him smile and laugh. Being able to play and understand hide-and-seek-style games makes baby feel smart and encourages his developing sense of independence.
