Are
you a mum, worried about how to keep your little one occupied? Is your baby
bored with his/her toys? One thing I always recommend is Nursery Rhyme Videos. Kids
are never too young to start listening to and watching nursery rhymes. My
daughter started watching videos on my iPad from 6 months, and absolutely loved
them (the iPad is history though; she dumped it water, cracked the screen, shattered the screen ..... good thing it was a very old device).
Whenever
she was watching them, I was free to do a couple of things because the videos
kept her occupied.
While
some people may think 6 months is too early to start watching videos, I don’t
think so. By the time she was 9 months old, she could replicate the actions in
the videos and by age 1, she could hum along to the songs.

I
recommend LittleBabyBum Channel on Youtube. They have lots of animated nursery
rhyme videos; some of them are up to 2 hours long. You can download the videos
to your tablet, laptop, USB device (and plug and play on your TV). The videos, asides from the basic nursery rhymes, teach potty training, handwashing and other habits you would want your child to imbibe.
