Tender moments: The 3 most beautiful changing rituals
Swaddling is not only an everyday care act for your baby, but also a wonderful opportunity to share tender moments. To make this time even more beautiful, you can introduce recurring rituals that not only bring joy and closeness to your baby, but also to you as parents. In this blog post we will introduce you to the three most beautiful changing rituals.
1. Relaxing musical accompaniment:
Even the little ones love hearing soothing sounds. Why not choose a gentle playlist for the changing ritual? Play quiet music in the background while you place your baby on the mobile changing mat from sandiia® . This calming accompaniment not only creates a pleasant atmosphere, but also becomes a familiar signal to the little one that it is time for care and closeness. You can find a nice playlist e.g. here on Spotify.
2. Mindful massage after wrapping:
After changing the diaper, you can incorporate a short massage into the ritual. Use a hypoallergenic baby lotion and gently massage your baby's legs, feet and stomach. This is not only relaxing for the little one, but also strengthens the bond between parent and child. This massage is particularly easy to carry out on the mobile changing mat as it offers a soft and comfortable surface.
3. Eye contact, smiles & poems:
While changing, it is important to make eye contact with your baby. A smile and loving words create a deep connection. How about a sweet tickle game in the form of a poem? At the “Little Snail” you can sing to the melody of “Brother Jakob”. As you sing the rhyme, your fingers crawl from your feet to your head. And at the end you tickle your child's stomach.
Text: “Little snail, little snail, crawls up, crawls up, crawls down again, crawls down again, tickles on the stomach, tickles on the stomach.”
The mobile changing mat as a reliable companion:
The mobile changing mat from sandiia® becomes the invisible hero of these rituals. Lightweight and compact, it can be taken anywhere so that the usual routines and rituals do not have to be interrupted. Whether at home or on the go - the mobile changing mat offers a clean and hygienic surface for those special moments.
Overall, changing rituals are not only important for the baby's well-being, but also strengthen the bond between parents and child.
