Encourage early physical milestones and active discovery with the Month 3: I Can Move! Lesson Plan by Everyday Play N Learn! This detailed 41-page monthly curriculum focuses on body coordination, cause-and-effect relationships, and gross motor confidence through gentle, structured infant play.

Tailored specifically around infant care schedules, this unit pairs essential care transitions—including 5 scheduled feedings, diaper changes, and frequent naps—with one-on-one developmental activities. From kick-and-play piano mats and rolling practice to bell bracelets, blanket slides, and crinkle-crawl mats, every activity nurtures physical growth and caregiver bonding.

What's Inside:

• Week 1 (Kick, Roll, and Dance): Practice piano kick mats, guided roll-over leg crosses, ankle foot rattles, ribbon sensory waving, "swimming on the floor" blanket rides, and gentle lap sways.

• Week 2 (Reach, Roll, and Rattle): Execute soft ball swatting, floor-mirror turning games, ankle bell bracelets for sound-movement links, and sensory basket reaching.

• Week 3 (Push, Pull, and Problem Solve): Practice ribbon push-and-pull games, noisy crinkle-mat crawls, repetitive toy-dropping games for object permanence, and tactile finger-walks.

• Week 4 (Sound, Speed, and Surprise): Play upside-down pot/box drums, gentle blanket speed slides, peek-a-boo puppet pop-ups, touch-activated light-up toys, and prep for the Baby Obstacle Course project.
