This baby yoga pose is also great for little tummy's and aiding in digestion. It's a fun workout for their legs and helps them learn how to kick!
Hold your babies legs however is comfortable for you both and then just bring one knee up and into their tummies and say Paaadddhhaa!
And then switch and do the other leg and say Haaasssttaaa! Continue going back and forth and switching legs, I usually do about 10 times. Remember to do it a fun sing-songy voice and spend lots of time smiling and making eye-contact with your baby.
Yoga is such a great bonding experience because of the skin to skin contact and the eye contact.

Just FYI, most of the baby yoga poses I post, I learned at my Itsy Bitsy Yoga training. The founder and creator, Helen Garabedian, has a great book and dvds that you can purchase to help your home practice. Or you can go to her website and try and find a class near you!
