Summertime is almost here which means it’s time to start making plans. Just because you recently had a baby doesn’t mean you have lost your summer to changing diapers and sleepless nights. Your baby will love exploring the world since it is completely new to them, and they will be seeing everything, literally for the first time. The more you allow your baby to venture out and explore, the more they will absorb and learn, which is key at that age. Here are some of our favorite daily adventures you can go on with your bundle of joy.

1. The park is the perfect spot where the entire family, regardless of ages, can have fun. The newborn will have all the stimulation they need with kids running and nature all around them. They can even interact with the nature around them, give them a flower and watch how they interact with it. This is your entertainment. You will be watching your baby hold its first flower, or feel grass for the first time. This is our favorite part of these daily activities.
2. While many might feel weary taking their newborn to the beach, we think a short beach day could be great. Sand between your toes is a feeling that everyone experiences and your baby will love it as much as anyone else. You can even dip their toes in the shallows when the tide is pulling out. These little vacations can be extremely influential in your baby’s overall development.
3. We truly love farmer’s marketsand really feel that bringing your baby along can be even more enjoyable. Obviously, this would be most beneficial when your baby is starting to eat solid food, so that way they can taste all the delicious fruits and vegetables. We think the sooner you introduce healthy, organic products to you child, the healthier they will be. They will fall in love with the natural products at a young age, and after they’ve tasted the best, it’ll be hard to fall back.
4. The Zoois also a great place to hang out and allow your baby to soak in information. Imagine you had never seen a giraffe before, what would it look like? This is what a day at the Zoo is like for your baby. The more colors and images they see when they are young the quicker they will recognize these images as they develop. It is very important for your child to experience as much as they can, as early as they can. This is an instance of the more information the better.
5. Our last, and possibly most important tip would be to allow the grandparents to babysit. Having a baby can be stressful and it is important to understand this and take time off when you can. Plus, grandparents will love any extra time they can get with their newest grandchild. Enjoy the time off, you’ll feel a bit guilty, but this time to relax is necessary so then you’ll have all the energy you’ll need to keep up with them.

Spending quality time with your newborn is extremely important, but this time should also help with their development. Summer is the perfect time for this because there is no issue with the weather. Make sure to strap up and get that baby ready to see the world, or just the city you live in.
