Prayer To Promote Tummy Time and Movement for Regulation
Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for the amazing ways You designed children to grow and develop. Help us encourage healthy movement and exploration that strengthen our infants' bodies and support their development. Give us patience and consistency as we help them build new skills and confidence.
Amen.
Scripture Reflection (KJV)
“For in him we live, and move, and have our being.” — Acts 17:28a
Movement plays an important role in infant development. Activities such as tummy time help strengthen muscles, improve coordination, and support sensory and motor development. Through movement and exploration, infants learn about themselves and the world around them.
Practice / Task
Schedule several short tummy-time sessions throughout the day. Get on the floor with your infant, encourage interaction, and celebrate their efforts as they practice lifting their head, reaching, rolling, or exploring their environment.
