Newborn babies move through various states of alertness throughout the day. The three most common are known as the drowsy state, the quiet alert state, and the active alert state. When baby is in the quiet alert state, they are calm with their eyes wide open. There may be little to no activity or facial movement. This is a good state to play with baby because they’re calm but awake, which means they’ll be engaged and react to the game. 📹 Understanding Baby’s Cues and States of Alertness: https://youtu.be/1YZd8QrgcGI
