Baby Exercises: Tummy Time app for iPhone and iPad

The app helps babies exercise their neck muscles while laying on their stomach with its appealing visuals and familiar baby sounds.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
A monochromatic caterpillar travels from the bottom of the screen to the top, making the baby follow it with her eyes and by raising her head.
The caterpillar produces a spatial positional sound of a babys rattle toy, giving baby also an auditory stimuli to follow.
Touching the screen makes leaves and the caterpillar races to eat them! You can also enable the camera background mode since babies LOVE to see themselves :)

FEATURES
Optimised for babies, even from their newborn stage, with the following features:
HIGH-CONTRAST monochromatic visual patterns that are easy to see for infants that dont have their eyesight fully developed
POSITIONAL RATTLE sound coming from the caterpillar, giving an auditory stimuli and focusing babys attention
CAMERA mode makes the baby her own focus of attention
TIMER lets you know how much time has the baby spent on her tummy

This game was developed to make tummy time fun and help your baby reach important CDC cognitive and physical milestones which are:
• Follow things with eyes
• Can hold head up
Turn head toward sounds

HOW TO USE
Here are a few ideas on how to use the app:
1. Place baby on her tummy with game playing in front. Baby will exercise neck muscles by looking at the caterpillar. Stop if baby gets fussy or cannot hold head upright.

2. Sit down and hold baby in your lap. Start the game and tap to make caterpillar change direction and watch how baby tracks it. If she tries to do it herself, she is a pro!

3. Make your own, play and observe the baby - have fun while doing beneficial exercises for your baby!
