Practicing Good Dental Habits

River has always enjoyed oral stimulation -- it started with the pacifier, then it became our fingers in his mouth, and now the toothbrush. It's an easy trick to calm him (we used it at our recent doctor's appointment). And now he seems to be learning how to hold the toothbrush, and bring it towards his mouth. We think it's amazing and so we're sharing a recent learning moment. Unfortunately this chair does not give him proper support and so you'll see him arching his back when he is trying to initiate movement. Hopefully this will be rectified when his new chair arrives. We hope you enjoy this video as much as we do!

Hmmm. The interest is wonderful - but, yes, I agree, it does look a bit dangerous! But he'll get it!
