Let’s Crawl, Baby! Baby Crawling Contest 2009
“爬吧！宝宝！” 第二届Mummycare宝宝爬爬乐竞赛
“When does baby start crawling?” is perhaps one of the questions most often asked by parents. When we talk about crawling, we are actually referring to (1) crawling on hands and knees, or (2) crawling with hands and feet (just like bear walking), or (3) “Commando” crawling means using forearms, or (4) “Bum shuffling” which means moving forward by using feet and buttocks. So, at what age does baby start crawling?
Under normal circumstances, about 50% of infants can crawl at 7 months, some can do so at 10 months and most of the infants would have mastered it at 11 months. Infants crawl when they have learned and fully mastered the skills needed to crawl. These skills are not only neurological skills, but they also need a certain amount of physical strength. Hence, it can be a very personal learning process and subject to the family support that an infant is exposed to. Can your baby crawl now? If he or she can crawl in whichever styles that we mentioned above, even better if he or she can do it fast, then don’t miss this Baby Crawling Contest 2009 organized by Mummycare!
Contest Details
This Contest will be held on 22 November 2009, Sunday morning at Crown Square Imperial hall. The event is organized by Mummycare & Kidycare with support from Crown Square Management, and jointly sponsored by Bumble Bee Quality Baby Products, Mamypoko Disposable Diapers, Combi and Daihua Toys Importer-Exporter. The fastest baby to reach the finishing point of the well-designed “Fun & Crawl Explorer Lane” and shut out all the tempting objects, he or she will be the Champion of the day – a winner who can bring home the Grand Prize which costs more than Rm800 in total!
The Grand Prize for Champion includes:
Mamypoko Hamper worth Rm350,
Bumble Bee Hamper worth Rm250,
Rm200 Cash Voucher and a Grand Trophy.
The “Fun & Crawl Explorer Lane” will be carefully designed and built by Mummycare, cushioned by soft floor mat to prevent babies from possible injury during their crawl. There will be scattered yet safe obstacles and tempting objects on the lane. Whether or not the baby can resist all temptation and finally reach at the finishing point, it all depends on the baby’s self-disciplined and parent’s leadership during the Contest.
