Looking for simple, engaging 9 to 12 month baby activities to support your little one's development through play? The Busy Brains Activity Packs 9–12 Months Pack is filled with practical ideas to help you make the most of everyday moments with your baby.
 
Between nine and twelve months, babies are becoming increasingly mobile, curious and sociable. They may be crawling, pulling themselves up to stand, exploring objects in new ways and beginning to communicate their needs and preferences. Every baby develops at their own pace, and playful everyday interactions offer wonderful opportunities to practise new skills together.

Our 9–12 Months Pack takes the guesswork out of playtime, giving you simple, purposeful activities to try at home without complicated preparation or lots of new toys.

What will your baby learn through play?

The activities in this pack are designed to support a range of important early skills, including:
 
Gross motor development: Encourage the big movements involved in crawling, climbing, pulling up to stand and moving around, while building strength, balance and coordination.
Communication and language: Enjoy interactive games that encourage listening, turn-taking, gestures, sounds and early communication.
Social and emotional development: Strengthen your connection through playful interactions that nurture confidence, emotional well-being and a growing sense of independence.
Creativity and exploration: Give your baby opportunities to investigate, experiment and discover how things work.
Early problem-solving: Encourage curiosity as your baby explores objects, works out simple challenges and learns through trial and error.
