This is probably a thick question but what do you do with baby when its awake? My son is 10 weeks old and literally just tentatively reaching to touch things. Hes still not particularly interested in his toys although may spend a few mins looking at cloth books. Hes generally a smiley happy baby. I feel like i should be entertaining him every time hes awake to aid his development - is that right? I sing and talk to him all the time. Obviously if I am out shopping etc he tags along and looks about but today for example i am home for the day. If i have wrapping/cooking to do he seems content to watch. But I currently have nothing to do!
If I am honest I feel abit bored/stupid waving his toys at him that he isn't fussed about but dont want to ignore him and stare at the tv lol - i would hate it if i am hindering him.
Any tips?
