The first birthday has come! Mom wipes away happy tears, grandmother bakes a birthday cake, and dad throws the little one to the chandelier. On this solemn day, you can look into the world of the baby with one eye. What is new and unusual in it?
First birthday
So it happened! Wait! Your baby is celebrating her first birthday today. "So he will soon go to college," you think, while you yourself slowly glance at him. What has changed with the baby during this time? Not a single detail escapes from my mother's gaze.
First, your apartment has turned into a laboratory - entertaining, exciting. Therefore, the little world discoverer made it his duty to carry out his most daring experiments in it. You can find him drawing food on the table, taking things out of the closet, taking objects from the shelves and throwing them in different corners.
The kid, without batting an eye, will pull out all the pasta from the can, and then he will carefully push them back. As he can, he will put it down. Here even Cinderella will not be able to compete with his zeal. All these are normal and healthy processes that help a little person to get to know this world, "taste it". Of course, you can't scold him for these pranks. They are as natural as our breathing.
How interesting everything is
Crawling on a sofa, an armchair, a toddler's bed is akin to a trip to Disneyland. He will gladly climb any uneven surfaces, crawl under an obstacle. At this wonderful age, the child turns into a "perpetuum mobile". The battery runs out only when the sleep finally overcame it.
He not only explores the world tactilely, but also through sound. Therefore, so often you will watch your fidget knocking a spoon on a plate or a pencil on a table. In addition to primitive sound production, the restless experimenter also likes melodies that have already taken place. He will listen to songs with you with great pleasure, press on the belly of the crocodile to hear a piercing roar. Do not be surprised if he then imitates a predator in the most unexpected moments … for example, sitting on a pot.
A sensitive topic
By the way, about the pot. At this time, the child gets upset when an embarrassment happens in the wrong place and tries to call you with sounds to bring him to the desired location. His speech is still not very expressive and consists more of interjections or the simplest words. He can tell something to himself with ardor and interest for a long time. How can you blame him for this? It's always nice to talk to an intelligent person! The young experimenter already knows the word "no". Hearing him, he is likely to be upset. And he can even make a little storm for mom, starting to knock on the floor with his feet.
Early childhood development
At this age, independence begins to actively develop. At 1 year old, the child already knows how to do some things on his own - bring his mother familiar things, drink from a mug, stand, holding on to something. For him, all this is new and incredibly interesting. Support the desperate leader in his aspirations. Self-reliance is a useful thing. Pay maximum attention to the baby: sing funny songs with him, draw kalyaks, read fairy tales. You can watch educational cartoons for children with him. Cartoons by Vladimir Suteev are well suited. Bright kind characters will not leave the kid indifferent.
He is already curious to look at pictures, trying to correlate them with familiar objects. The child actively develops his personal potential. Be with him. Your attention, care, support and love will surely give their shoots in the future!
