12 – 24 Months Expected Evolution

Every parent awaits in anticipation to see their child walk and talk. Before your child gets prepared for any action, his body has to get developed for that particular action. The development within babies varies due to many external factors.

Nutrition plays a vital role in development. Sleep is the maximum growth period. Realize that new born babies sleep almost all day. Duration of sleep varies with age. Your baby is always growing so at this age take care of what you feed. When he reaches one year, he will begin to pick things up, try getting into a standing position, feed himself and clap his hands. His muscles also increase day by day.

In order to ensure maximum growth you must feed the baby with a more nutritious food. Development is poor in a malnourished baby. At about 13 to 15 months, your baby will not only play with toys but also try to walk. But this time he walks without support. People say some babies walk at about 6 months but this is too unusual. Toys are useful for development of babies. Try playing a bosendorfer baby grand piano in front of your baby. You will observe that your baby will try to dance moving his hands and legs. He will walk fully and climb stairs at about 18 to 20 months. He will also learn to play with building blocks and feed himself well. At this age he will be fond of cartoons and talk a few words.

By the time your baby reaches his second birthday, he will get more naughtier and mess about everything. So, this is the time when you have to be careful and maintain safety precautions at home. Know that every child is different. At this time your baby will dump and fall into everything and hurt himself too often. By this if his head is hurt there are chances of internal injury which might last too longer and damage the brain.

Taking great care can help your baby develop better and you can enjoy watching him as he grows.
