What is a 4 month old baby able to do for fun? Please keep in mind that if your baby was born before 36 weeks, make sure to adjust for age when determining age appropriate activities for them. When considering jumpers or bouncers, make sure to use them when babies are able to take their full body weight on their flat feet, and that when positioned in the bouncer or saucer, that there is a bend in the hips and knees as well as feet flat on a surface. You may need to use a folded towel or blanket under the feet to position them correctly. 4 month old babies are learning to hold toys that fit in their fists, bring toys to mouth, and are beginning to transfer easily held toys from one hand to the other. They may visually discover their hand, and be fascinated with that wondrous thing! They should be able to prop on tummy on their forearms for a few minutes, and may be able to roll one direction or the other. They like to explore their world visually, and like to be placed in different positions throughout their environment to visually and auditorally explore. They are becoming fascinated with feeling textures with their fingers. Facial expressions are a favorite pastime! So much fun at this age!
