Create an infant-sized ball pit by placing balls in a small plastic pool. Select balls that vary in color, size, weight, sound and texture. Place the infant so he/she can explore as you narrate his/her actions. Say, “You are using your hands to hold the big, fuzzy ball,” or “Look at your right foot. It is touching the bright, yellow ball!” Roll, shake and squeeze the balls to capture the infant's attention.
