Does placing my 4-month-old on their back on the ground with a toy held over them help hand-eye coordination?

Yes, placing a 4-month-old on their back on the ground with toys above them directly supports hand-eye coordination. At this age, babies are starting to discover their hands and trying to follow and reach for a toy while watching it strengthens the visual-motor connection. Lying on their back also supports head and neck muscles. A few times a day, 5-10 minutes with a toy you move slowly just above their eye level is plenty. Stop if your baby gets bored or fussy.
