2. Help strengthen the baby’s neck muscles, in preparation for crawling.
3. Helps develop gross motor skills … Just see, when you lay your baby face down position, then he will kicking legs and moving his hands, right?
4. Helps develop fine motor skills … When your stomach, your baby will usually try to grasp and pulling your shirt or blanket that was around.
