Each day (at least once) we do something we call "blanket time" with Jeralyn. Right now this happens after her first bottle feeding of the day and then sometimes in the afternoon/evening. Right now she's at 12 minutes, but it started out at 5 minutes (goal is 30 minutes). We tell her, "It's blanket time!" and then we set out her special giraffe-print blanket with some toys (we have to be creative with the toys sometimes) and then we set a timer. We do have to remind her to stay on the blanket and some days she's better at staying on than others. I'm hoping this will come in handy in the future and I'm already seeing the benefits of it. Here I have her set up in the kitchen, but we do this in several places in our house.
