Talking and interacting with the infant on a regular basis develops attachment between the infant and the teacher. Do this fingerplay with the infant lying on a blanket:


Here is the beehive (Make a fist.)
But where are the bees? (Look in your fist and shrug shoulders.)
Here they come out of the hive: one, two, three, four, five (Bring out one finger at a time; when you reach five, tickle infant's tummy.)
