Development like mechanismdisplay emotions and do certain movements. If all these functions appear in time,
this means a baby`s brain and motor apparatus are developing correctly. So, if
you notice your baby`s development of movements and psyche that do not correspond
to his age, you need to find out whether this hypogenesis is caused by in-born
defect of central nervous system or by lack of parental attention.
he`s growing, that`s why your baby`s intellect depends on his living conditions
in many aspects. For example, a baby needs communication yet before birth, and
when a baby is born, communication is just necessary for him. That`s why children,
who couldn`t stay with their parents for some reasons, are backward (physically
and mentally) those children, who grow in families, providing them not only good
care (feeding, bathing etc.), but also full-value communication, like with equal
family members.
care, provided by parents. For example, babies, who are always swaddled in blankets
(with legs and arms), start crawling and taking objects with hands lately. There`s
another extreme: parents think they can hasten their baby`s development. Of course,
you can teach baby standing or sitting earlier through training. However, these
early successes are not useful for him, but even harmful. To upbring a harmonious
personality, you just need to observe certain rules of upbringing, schedule of
feeding and sleep. Provide him with toys, talk to him all the time, take care
of his skills (according to his age), and in case of retardation, apply for a
doctor immediately.
learning it, don`t forget that every baby is individual and develops according
to his own schedule, and this is normal.
A newborn baby is physically helpless, his motions are uncertain. By the moment
of birth he already has food reflex, whis he dispalys searching for a mother`s
breast and suckling it. Defence and attention reflexes are also well-noticed.
Defence reflex is displayed through winking, attention one - through eye motion
towards source of light. However, a baby still cannot look after objects. If you
touch a baby`s palm with your finger, he will catch it. In this age a baby can
hang holding a mother`s or father`s thumbs. He sleeps in a frog`s pose: lying
on back, with arms bended in elbows and raised up, and legs bended in knees and
pulled apart.

appear - cooing, first smile. A baby can hold head vertically during several seconds,
in general lying on belly. He stretches himself, tries to push away and crawl.
If you hold him under his arms, he will be able to set his feet against support
(for example, floor). Since the moment of birth and until 2 motns a baby sleeps
about 20 hours per day and night.
What should worry parents? Baby doesn`t react to acute sounds, sleeps little
(stay awake between 2-3 feedings) or to the contrary too much (when you have to
awake him to feed), eats badly (eats not enough).
stops suckling, if you show him a bright object. Lying on belly, he lifts his
head and raises chest a little, for 1-1,5 minutes holds his head. If you hold
him under his arms, he will be able to stand, but still with bended legs. Ability
to stay in hanging position and striving for crawling dissapear. He smiles in
response to a smile and cooes more distinctly already. A baby tries to hold objects

turns head towards this sound. A baby doesn`t already search for breast, but opens
his mouth when it approaches. Lying on belly, he can rise, leaning on his elbows
and forearms, tries to sit (if you support his rump), turn on side from back,
hold head. His arms` motions become free and expedient: he brings objects to mouth,
reach for toys, clanks with rattles, claps his hands and pulls them to mouth.

laughs, when he`s contented, and cries, if something goes wrong. A baby is already

hands, he will stand, and if you support his chest - he will make first attempts
to step. A baby already catches objects with one hand, brandish with a rattle,
picks up a fallen toy, starts searhing for dissapeared objects. He can laugh,
whimper, cry and react to other people`s emotions. A baby tries to pronounce syllables,

by himself, stands on all fours, grabbles, sits, stands on knees, grasping railings
of his cot. If you support him under his arms, he will start stepping. His motions
become purposeful, for example, he can put an object from one hand to another,
ask parents to hold him, stretch arms towards mother, father. A baby starts repeating
syllables.
it`s difficult for him to bring objects to mouth. He cannot bear his own weight,
leaning on feet. A baby isn`t glad to anything, doesn`t hug mother and father,
doesn`t look after moving objects, doesn`t show interest towards “cuckoo” game,
doesn`t babble.
close people. A baby likes hugging parents, and you cannot deprive him of this
pleasure, as this way he tries to beat a feeling of fear in himself. Try to understand
his prattle, answer him with words and gestures. In this age a baby needs tough
toys, but his previous “friends”: rattles and rings are still useful for him.

of objects. During eating he tries using … his finger. A baby starts mastering
gestures, for example, nods his head, trying to explain what he doesn`t want.

words (by 15-18 months), and then sentences of two, three words (by 18-24 months).

Let`s sum up. What does a 3 years old baby need? It is important for him to feel
that parents are always ready to take part in his activity, that he`s the most
interesting person in the world for them. In this age a child feels love and dislike
of his close people acutely and forms his affections, which are kept for the whole
life. A baby should have things to take and carry: books, cars, toys. Show him
how to use a pastel crayon, big chalks and paper. Keep an illustrated book, where
simple actions are pictured, at hand and ask a baby showing and naming characters.
Teach your baby to construct objects, unscrew and screw up lids.
A baby starts using polysyllabic phrases actively, becomes curious. He tries
to draw a man and animals. A child likes loud outdoor games, fuss with kids and
adults, games with rules, dresses up with pleasure. You need to play a lot with
him, allow talking on the phone, communicate with other kids at home and during
walk. Look through photograph albums together and name known people, listen to
songs and sing them. Read fairy tales, poems and ask a baby to retell them. It`s
time to get various objects for outdoor games: mattress, pillows, balls, wall
bars.
