I need to find a fun activity or game for a child 3 to 9 months.?

Answer 1

Sing songs. ABC's & Old McDonald & Wheels on the bus.
Play pat-a-cake. Give the baby tummy time on the floor.

Answer 2

at this age, they know who you are and just looking at you is a fun game!! try geting rid of the stroller s and bouncer and spent time with your baby~ floor time, teach him to roll over, stand up, start tough sounds, form l s and ps, flash cards, anything you can do he wants to do too! Crawling builds communication in the brain from left to right - put a toy out and let him get it - gosh these are easy things to do, even while you are multitasking

Answer 3

small babies love bubbles, so blowing bubbles can be fun, also they love making noise, I got my baby daughter some bells which strapped onto her wrist. hope this helps!

Answer 4

There are tons of things you can do! 3 months and 9 months is quite a developmental range. Either way just keep it simple. Babies enjoy the simple things in life! Have fun with it! I copied things down from this great book I have.

SUITABLE TOYS AND ACTIVITIES ACCORDING TO AGE

3 MONTHS -

SWATTING - Try attaching some foil and a sock stuffed with tissue paper or elastic and adding them to the baby's crib-hanger so that they are within arm's reach. At first he will hit them by chance but will gradually realize that there is a connection between what he is seeing and what his hands are doing and will start to reach out deliberately. You can also use rattles or bells to add sound.

KICKING - Try suspending crumpled paper and inflatable water wings or cushions across the bottom of the crib on strong elastic, and attach bells or rattles to them. A bouncing chair is also a lot of fun for baby's and teaches them cause and effect when their kicking causes movement.

THINGS TO HOLD - As soon as baby starts holding his hands open instead of fisted, you can start putting small, light objects into them. This is the stage at which rattles are most useful. Give baby practice in both hands.

ROLLING - To encourage her to roll from her back to her side, from about six weeks:
*lie down alongside her, so she has to roll to get closer to you;
*put a favorite toy out to her side;
*kneel over her, then suddenly lower your face or a favorite soft toy. She may roll as she squirms to get out of the way.
-Once she can roll, she may enjoy your nudging her with your head to make her roll or pulling her back with your hand whenever she starts to roll.

4 MONTHS

THINGS TO GRASP - The best position for a baby to practice picking things up is sitting in a baby chair with a tray. Don't give her more than 2 or 3 things at a time.

Books, old magazines, cotton spools threaded on string or ribbon, ribbon, elastic, baby's personal items such as sponge, toothbrush, comb, hairbrush, and diapers. Try blank cassettes, playing cards, coasters, plastic bottles, or toilet paper tube. Try things from the kitchen such as spoones, yogurt cartons, washed fruit and vegetables, rubber rings, plastic containers, plastic or paper cups and plates, metal teapot or kettle, saucepans and lids, ice-cuve trays, whisk... the list goes on and on...

6 MONTHS

PICTURE BOOKS - anything and everthing!
ENCOURAGE SITTING - gently pull her up into a sitting position by her hands from about 3 months old. If she is ready for this she will raise her head and try to pull herself up; holding her under her arms, sit her on your lap or the edge of a table and speak to her. She may try to straighten up and look at you; as her back gets stronger, say from about six months, sit her on the floor surrounded by pillows, cushions...; sit her on the floor for a second and catch her as she overbalances; give her toys that do not roll away and things she cannot easily play with lying down such as a spoon and saucepan lid to bang, an activity center and toys that stick to the high chair tray by a suction pad.

8 MONTHS

ENCOURAGE CRAWLING - put a favorite toy a little way in front of the baby or, better still, sit holding it yourself. Tempt him by opening a low cupboard that you would not mind him investigating. Crawl with him. Have "races" and chasing games, and play hide-and-seek round the furniture. Cut the ends out of a large cardboard box. He may like to crawl through it. Give him toys that roll such as balls, plastic bottles and cardboardtubes. Give him toys on wheels Show him how these roll on their own down a slope. Gradually decrease the slope until it is flat and he may realize he can give the toy a puch and then let go.

ENCOURAGE UNDERSTANDING OF WORDS
*Stress the key words in your sentences and try not to replace them with pronouns. "Where's the cup? Oh, There's the cup."
*Use the baby's name instead of "you" or "your". "Here's a biscuit for Emily, here's a biscuit for Mommy."
*Exaggerate your intonation and facial expressions, and match your words with actions.
*Talk about things the baby is looking at and about things that interest her such as toys or food.

9 MONTHS

ENCOURAGE STANDING -
*Hold him so he can stand on your lap
*Put him in a bouncer or walker]
*Put a favorite toy on a chair so he has to pull up and reach it.

SMALL THINGS TO PICK UP- (pincer grip)
Small peices of potato and carrot, peas, bread, crackers, and dry cereal.
