Position: Place infant in prone with head down and turned to one side with arms flexed and adducted with hands near shoulders.

Make each sound no more than 3 times before going to next sound (i.e., rattle 3 times, squeak toy 3 times, voice 3 times) if head turning has not occurred. Scoring: Score based on direction toward which face should turn (side on which sound is made, in this case the right side.)
