How to Give a Son a Zerbert or Raspberry

When a parent spends significant blocks of time playing with his or her child, the bond between them increases, the child can better handle daily stress and the little one learns that he is important to his mom or dad. You don't need to plan an elaborate playtime schedule, either. Along with toys and games, you can enjoy simple pleasures such as tickling, wrestling and giving your son raspberries --sometimes referred to as zerberts-- on his tummy.

Instructions

    • 1

      Lay your son on his back on a comfortable, flat surface, such as your bed, the couch or his changing table.

    • 2

      Lift or remove your son's shirt so that his tummy is completely exposed.

    • 3

      Purse your lips and place them on your son's belly.

    • 4

      Keep your lips together and blow while making a humming sound so that your lips vibrate, tickling his tummy.

    • 5

      Alternatively, place your open mouth onto your son's tummy and blow. Not only will the vibration cause a tickling sensation, but it will also make a silly sound that is bound to bring giggles.
