How much tummy time do you do with your LO and how do you keep it entertaining?

    I do 10 minutes here and there throughout the day. I have a book that is all black and white since that's all she can see right now. She stares at it and I point out objects. I sing to her too,

    I do a bunch of it from TT on my belly to TT on the floor on her playmat. I have toys, a mirror, I change positions around her and make her look for the noise, music, rattle whatever.

    We only get a few minutes here and there, maybe 10 minutes per day.  DD hates tummy time with a passion!  But before she starts crying, she likes to look at herself in the mirror, or listen to different rattle sounds.

    DD hated it at first, so we only did a couple minutes at a time.  I get down on the floor with her on her activity gym for about 10 minutes at a time, and she does LOTS of tummy time laying on me.

    DS hates tummy time and will last for 5 minutes at a time max. We have a Baby Einstein fold out plush book with a mirror, a tummy time mat and an activity gym. He just hates to be on his stomach.

    We have an activity mat that has lights on the top that he loves so I bring them down to the ground and he'll look at that for a few minutes. Someone also told me to try laying down w/ my knees up and putting him on my calves and he will be forced to hold his head up (kinda like superman).  We do a few minutes here and there throughout the day so I'm sure it doesn't equal more than 10 minutes total through the day.
