Babies Need

Babies Need……




Babies need shoes, clothes and loving care
Combs, brushes and oil for their hair
Lotion for their skin and baby oil too
Socks, booties and to play peek-a-boo

Babies need hugs, kisses and love all around
Lots of smiles and never a frown

Mind stimulation, so read to them often
Gentle caresses and to be cuddled softly

Babies need to be held and petted too
They need to feel safe and secure even
Outside of the womb…..
