Activities for newborn and small infant regressors (because all the activities posts are for older kiddos who can do more!)

Tummy time with toys! Even just touching/looking at your toys is fine :]

Swaddle yourself up real nice and tight in a blankie and maybe nap?? Or try and inch around like an inch worm that sounds really fun actually

Discover your limbs 🤯

Lay down on the floor or in bed and watch a low-sensory show or even stim videos

If you don't have a mobile, maybe watching your ceiling fan would be similar?!

Maybe if you need hand covers you could make some of your own! Like crochet or even sewing! You could also just put socks on your hands which is fun to do regardless

Maybe setting up a little activity mat beforehand! I've seen so many fun activities for babies that even I wanna try out, like slime in a zip lock bag that you could move around!

Perhaps try your hand at sitting... maybe even crawling......... but don't work too hard at it!! Babies need lots of rest you know!

Play "what is that thing?" Try and examine things more objectively, as opposed to what they are/what they do. How is it shaped? Is it similar to anything else? What color is it? Does it move or make noise? Etc. Maybe try and come up with other things it could do too! Or your own name for it?

Again tummy time is great and even I do it as a toddler/kid regressor. Focus on the texture! Are you laying on a rug? A carpet? Tile? Your blanket? What color is the surface, what texture is it? Does it smell like anything?

You could also play "name the color"! Look around at things and name the colors they are! This could be played two ways: coming up with new names for colors, or being as specific with the names as you can! Like "turquoise " as opposed to "green"! It makes you wrack your brain for color names just like you would be if you were learning them for the first time! Could also be played with animals or objects!

In their arms , all is right in the world , even for just a moment

them rubbing your back slowly to calm you down

moving your head to their chest so you can hear their steady heartbeat

holding you even tighter and rocking you back and forth while covering your ears when they feel your little form startle at sudden noises

feeling them chuckle so affectionately when you nuzzle closer to their neck because their baby doesnt want to be even a centimeter apart from their (cg)

reassuring you that you are never too big to be held

reminding you that you are the most perfect size for a baby as you are , the most perfect size to be held and cradled without issue

"youre alright , i got you , i promise youre safe with me"

praising you for being such a good little one for them

feeling so safe and small and letting yourself melt into them , all the burdens of the world melting off your little shoulders

letting your mind grow softer and fuzzier and your throughts slow , only left with glowing warm feelings of how loved and cared for you feel , that nothing wrong will happen because you are in their safest embrace

I need to bring attention to concerning behavior from the Tumblr user @teacherdadda.

Multiple people (including myself) have experienced or witnessed them:

messaging users while they are regressed

asking invasive and inappropriate questions about diapers

engaging in conversations that feel targeted toward vulnerable littles

This is not safe or appropriate behavior, especially in a community where regression is often tied to trauma and vulnerability.

Even if a blog claims to be “SFW,” asking personal or fetish-adjacent questions (especially about diapers) crosses a boundary and can be harmful.

Please:

do not engage with this account if you are a little/regressor

block/report if you feel uncomfortable

check in on your friends in the community 💗

If you’ve had a similar experience, you are not alone, and you deserve to feel safe in your space.
