Exploring Textures

Parent lets baby touch food or different textured materials during mealtime or free play. The agent guides the parent to observe how baby grasps, explores, and reacts to various textures — building tactile discrimination, hand transfer skills, and sensory curiosity.

Free to do together whenever you like.
