The Senses

• The Symphony Light & Motion Mobile stimulates and develops sight and hearing.
• With four different fascinating movements, it encourages baby to focus on an object and track it with her eyes.
• The combination of repetitive circular motion and other alternating movements with objects rising and falling and turning around, maintains baby’s attention and active observation.
• The alternating movement of the colorful liquids in the center, with or without the light, enriches the visual experience.
• The three different classical music tunes stimulate and develop hearing, bringing baby closer to the world of music and developing her musical skills.
• The combination of music and visual stimuli develops coordination between these two senses.

Fine Motor Skills

• The Symphony Light & Motion Mobile contributes to the development of baby’s eye muscles.
• Small babies find it difficult to follow objects with their eyes because of their limited vision and weak eye muscles. Consequently, slow-moving objects encourage babies to follow with their eyes thereby contributing to the strengthening of the eye muscles.

Cognition

• Spatial perception: The visual stimuli are designed in layers – animals alongside balls with colorful cones above, and finally the colorful liquid shapes wheel.
• As baby’s vision develops, she begins to discover the top and bottom layers as well as those to the sides. This develops her spatial perception and her ability to organize and perceive objects in space.
• Cause & effect: The music box has four buttons and can be used as a musical activity center, encouraging baby to push buttons (cause) in order to receive different musical responses (effect).

Object Permanence

• From her fifth month, baby will become aware of objects disappearing and reappearing within her field of vision. As a result, objects that appear-disappear-reappear in a fixed order and at a set pace, contribute to the discovery and exercise of this occurrence.

EQ

• Baby’s ability to calm herself depends, at least in the beginning, on outside help.
• The Symphony Light & Motion Mobile is a calming stimulus which sooths her.
• The combination of music and motion become a stable, familiar and friendly element for baby.

Language & Communication

• Listening to music contributes to the development of language in babies.
• Both music and language consist of a series of sounds that make up sentences. In the first instance, the sentences are musical and in the second, verbal. In both instances, the brain picks up the series of sounds, organizes them and gives them meaning.
