From his birth, your baby has been on a mission to grow and go. Once he rolls, he wants to crawl, when he walks, he wants to run.
Working to master a new motion, he will let nothing get in the way of this progress. But he also needs help learning how to stop himself—a skill called inhibitory control, or the ability to stop oneself and wait. It’s also one of the first steps toward self-discipline.
Stop and go songs, dances and chants give him practice for this lifelong skill through fun and play. By making a game of stopping and starting, he understands that he has control over his own actions, giving him a great sense of accomplishment (and you can catch up with him).
