You crawl, I crawl, we crawl


We know that crawling is a very important stage to baby's development, that brings lots of benefits like better peripheral vision and balance, ability to sense distances and space, it helps to align the spinal column to get ready to stand and walk.  All of this prepares the mental structure for superior functions like speech, writing, and thought, which bring benefits when they reach school phase.

So I ask: "Are there any benefits for adults?" Because crawling around the entire house every day with our baby has to have some benefit, right?  Here are some that I've observed:

-Helps to better develop your motor functions in your domestic responsibilities (like sweeping) as you notice that the floor isn't as clean as you thought it was.

-Helps you find lost objects.

And the most important: 

-It helps strengthen your connection to your baby, makes your day happier and brings a great satisfaction at seeing your little one laugh and have so much fun with you. =)
