What is Tummy Time?

Tummy Time is one of baby's first exercises-and the most important to develop the core muscles of the neck, back, and shoulder muscles.

Tummy Time is the period during the day your baby spends awake and on their stomach.

It is a crucial exercise for baby's visual, motor, and sensory development.

Baby can begin Tummy Time as a newborn, and continue throughout baby's first year.
