Development Milestones - Reach

The magic of cause & effect…
In the first weeks your baby’s movements were mostly reflex reactions, such as closing fingers when the palm of a tiny hand was touched. Gradually babies start to make more purposeful movements and gain a sense of their surroundings. By around six months, increasing strength and muscle control help baby sit up independently and start to make things happen – from reaching and grasping toys to discovering the magic of cause and effect ... “I did that!

How your baby plays now:
  • She's better at entertaining herself, and more deliberate in her exploration.
  • Baby may be walking at 13 months—but could still be very unsteady on his feet.
  • She can pull herself up and sit securely.
  • She can stand unassisted and cruise along the furniture.
Toys for this age:
