Copy Me: Toothbrush Imitation

Parent models toothbrushing movements with their own toothbrush while baby watches, encouraging imitation and building early healthy habits. The agent coaches the parent to observe imitation attempts, attention to the activity, and social engagement during this daily routine practice.

Free to do together whenever you like.

What you'll need

Parent and baby in a comfortable position where baby can clearly see parent's face and hands. Parent needs their own toothbrush and toothpaste. Baby does not need a toothbrush — this is observational learning. Best done during regular toothbrushing time.
