Be Cautious When Your Baby Rolls Up and Down

At this age, your child will begin to roll onto his stomach from lying flat on his back, one of the first milestones of the development of his motor system. Though this is an exciting time as your child is on the threshold of exploring the world around him, there are certain things that you should be mindful of as parents.

1. Make sure that your child is not left unsupervised for extended periods of time on any elevated surface such as beds. In the excitement that your little one has in exercising his new-found skill, he might fall from that surface. A very worrisome prospect indeed.

2. Your little one’s immune system is still in the process of learning a lot about his surroundings and the materials that he is interacting with. Therefore, make sure that the surfaces that you have you little one lying down on and is in contact with is hypoallergenic and uses baby friendly materials and colors, ensuring your child’s wellbeing.

3. Make sure that the play area that you are spending your child is soft and is surrounded by soft cushions, in addition to making sure that there are no sharp edges, corners or surfaces that your little one will bump when he is squirming around.

4. When you are carrying your child or when he is in your lap lying down, ensure that you are extra vigilant of your child’s movements and position. Often your child will try to turn on his side and this can sometimes cause your little one to fall out of your lap and harm himself. Hence be extra vigilant when you are laying your child on your lap during this age.

Financial Literacy for a Secure Future

As your child grows, every moment becomes an opportunity to nurture their curiosity about life. Why not introduce them to practical lessons that will shape their future? Concepts like saving, budgeting, and planning aren’t just about money—they’re about building a life of security and stability.

Take life insurance policies, for example. Rather than viewing it as a complex financial product, you can explain it as a promise to protect families and secure dreams. By planting these seeds of knowledge early, you’re giving your child the tools to grow into a confident and responsible adult who understands the value of financial planning. Teaching your child about practical tools like term insurance, such as 1 crore term insurance, can be one of the great lessons. Demonstrating how a term insurance premium calculator works may help your child learn the importance of planning, with explanations adjusted for their age and understanding.
