Baby Massage and Tummy Time Activities

A practical workshop on tummy time exercises and baby massage techniques for parents with infants aged 0-8 months.

Tummy time strengthens a baby's back and neck and forms the foundation for crawling and sitting - but many babies resist because it feels difficult and uncomfortable. During the workshop, you'll learn exercises, tips, and ideas for tummy time play using simple and inexpensive tools. The second half covers baby massage for play, stimulation, and relief of issues such as a sluggish digestion. The final minutes are dedicated to refreshing first aid techniques for choking in babies aged 0-12 months. Notes will be emailed to interested participants after the workshop.

The instructor is authorized physiotherapist and first aid instructor Marianne Mogensen (denfriefys.dk), author of the book "After Birth - Training & Baby Play".

After the workshop, children's librarian Birgitte will be present with a pop-up library where you can borrow picture books to take home. Remember to download the library app and check that your library membership is active before you arrive.
