Why You Should Get Down To Your Child’s Eye Level

From your child’s point of view, you are a walking, talking, human tower.

A loving human tower - but I digress ...

There are so many benefits to coming down to eye-level, besides getting a front-row seat at the cutie pie show:

• It helps you capture your child’s attention.

• It shows your child that they are important, that you are actively listening, and that you are genuinely interested in what they have to say and show you.
  

• It helps your child to see you better. This makes your gestures, facial expressions, mouth movements and words easier to see, which also makes them easier to imitate.

• It helps your child to hear you better, which is important for following directions and imitating sounds.

• It helps sets the stage for a warm and welcoming interaction and nurtures the relationship.

• The view is more fun from the ground!

So grab a chair, get on your knees, or lay on the floor and watch the magic happen!
