Activities for a 9mo?

Question

I'm seriously stumped. I see all these cool things on Pinterest- and DD can't really do any
of them yet. Today we tried paint in a Ziploc bag. She was all about the bag, but not interested in "painting". So, not really a fail, but not great? 
What are some activities I can do with her? Right now she just crawls around everywhere, and I sit on the couch. That's not fun! Bonus points for "learning" type activities.
We do read, at least 2-3 books a day, and she likes that!

Answer

Get down on the floor with her and roll a ball around. Build towers with blocks, let her splash in a tub of water, squeeze an empty waterbottle, even the paint in a Ziploc bag....nothing wrong with squeezing and squishing it. 
The one thing to remember is there's no one way to do things, no right way to play. Just have fun!!

Answer

Lights, different textures, sounds, smells, bubbles. Look up sensory play items, most of which you can make yourself. My baby has just turned one and he loves sensory bottles

Answer

I think the Pinterest stuff makes a great photo op but you never know, those babies may have only been interested for 10 seconds and it still got written up as this fantastic idea. I don’t have suggestions, just encouragement that you’re doing great.

Answer

Talking, singing, reading, dancing are super beneficial at this stage, as well as just letting them explore a small safe area.

Answer

As a mom o two with the 3rd on the way just offer lots of options and she will find what she likes every every baby progresses on their pace. My oldest wast walking and talking at 9 months , my youngest was not fond of doing either 😂 every baby does things when they are ready !

Answer

She’s still small, just talk and read to her
