Many parents want to do their balls low on the ground so that their babies can grow up comfortable. This is why some people make a habit of tucking their babies in high chairs or cradles when they are playing. This may work for a moment, but let’s face it: babies love to dive. When you do your balls low for your baby, you are encouraging him or her to dive even further. It may seem like an odd way to teach a baby to crawl, but you will reap the rewards because it will be healthier for your baby.

What can you tie them in a bow to keep your balls hanging low? The words “can you tie them in a bow” refer to a nursery rhyme, perhaps talking about how the small hands of babies cannot hold things. A shorter variation of this nursery rhyme with slight variations in the words is often heard, often sung by youngsters at baseball games:

“Can you tie ’em in a bow: my nappies hang low.” “I know how to do my balls, my nappies hang low.” Babies learn through imitation. If you can catch yourself saying these words while watching television or while listening to music, or while doing other activities that involve moving your body, you are teaching your child to learn that when his or her ears are touching the ground (or wherever he or she is), then his or her toes should touch likewise. In fact, this one word – “can you tie ’em in a bow” – can be a great way to stimulate your child’s development.

How many times have you seen a parent (or guardian) instruct: their child how to behave with respect to his or her ears? Have you ever thought that perhaps they don’t really know how to handle the situation because “they were only posted twelve years ago”? If your son or daughter has been exposed to “you’re going to drop these like it’s hot” and “these ears are just too far away”, then he or she is most likely wired like most babies. The good news is that through proper stimulation and socialization, babies can learn how to behave with respect to their ears!

So what can you do with your baby: when you cannot get your precious child to sit still long enough to use a stroller, or to go outside for some fresh air? Well, there are plenty of options, but it all begins with you making the time to spend a few minutes with your child. Have him or her to follow you around the house; ask him or her to do simple tasks like reading a book, combing his or her hair, or playing with a doll. Once you’ve spent some quality time with your child, start moving him or her towards a more active life by putting him or her down for a nap. Move him or her to different rooms to expose him or her to different toys, shapes and people. Once you’re both sitting and relaxed, you can begin teaching him or her how to behave properly and how to behave around others.

It is important: that you do not make any instant judgments or rush into implementing any lesson your child is learning. As he progresses and begins to develop the skills of listening, following, asking and following, then you will be able to instruct him or her on how to respond appropriately to certain situations and to be consistent in your efforts to teach “do you swing them to and from the hollow sound”.
