6-12 Months
Your babe will grow from a baby to toddler over these months.
It is a time of huge physical and cognitive growth for your babe.
In this time your baby will likely sit, crawl and May begin to cruise furniture or even walk.
Cognitively your child learns they’re a separate entity from you. This can sometimes cause a degree of anxiety around separation.
Your child will also have developed fine motor skills to pick up smaller objects and place them where they want.
Language wise your child may have begun saying first word such as ‘mama”, “dada” and phrases such as “uh-oh” which is just the cutest!
Toys to help stimulate your child during this time include stacking toys, toys that stimulate language—via parents and some moving toys which babies love chasing around with their new found movement skills.
