What can I do to help my baby learn to sit?

 

When they are learning to sit up, they are also learning to balance their bodies. The Baby Book authors William and Martha Sears suggest giving your baby incentive to work on sitting up and balance by putting toys in front of her. You can dangle a toy in front of her and watch as she tries to reach for it one hand at a time. Or move the toy from side to side, this will make her move her arms and reach for it while sitting.

 

There are seats that help babies to sit up...are these safe?
