Story massage

Massage is such a fabulous way to bond with our little ones. When we massage our babies we encourage the release of oxytocin (the love hormone) in their (and our!) bodies.

When our babies get bigger they might not want to stay still for a massage. But story massage is a great way to get some positive touch in your day through play.

Story massage involves telling a short story or singing a song with both words and touch. Because It’s creative and fun it’s more engaging for a growing baby.

The added element of repetition through songs and stories encourages anticipation, development of language skills, focus and concentration, communication, turn-taking and socialising skills!

I love it when I add some story massage into my Wiggles classes. 🥰
