The most common word at this age is "give." The kid clearly understands what he wants to receive and can be capricious if he is not given the desired object. Most children already have several teeth, so you can actively offer solid food. But if the teeth are still very small, do not rush with the usual food for adults. A characteristic feature of this period is considered to be complete weaning. For the baby, this is a great stress because he loses the usual psychological connection with the mother, so it is important to take the baby in your arms and iron it.
What can children do in 11 months?
Your baby is almost a year old and he does not cease to amaze you with all the new unusual activities. For example:
- he understands the speech of mother, father and other adults and even supports the conversation in a peculiar way, nodding his head;
- fulfills requests and is very happy if he is praised for the slightest success;
- can greet and say goodbye to friends, actively gesticulating;
- can independently, though slowly and carefully, go down and climb the steps;
- can imitate the voices and intonations of adults and repeat the sounds of animals;
- very actively imitates the actions of parents and other family members;
- understands when talking in the conversation is about him and carefully listens to the words.
Recommendations for care, nutrition and developmental games
- Since many babies begin to make their first steps or even just stamp their feet, be sure to buy him quality shoes with the instep. Even if your baby has not taken the first step yet, high-quality footwear will facilitate this process. In summer, you can let the crumb walk barefoot on the sand or grass. Just before that, make sure that there are no dangerous objects on the surface that the child can drive into the leg or raise
- Since the kid realizes not only what is happening around him, but also the needs of his own body, it is possible to teach him more actively and persistently to the pot, explaining that you need to lower your panties and sit down on the pot when you want to go to the toilet.
- Nutrition for children almost one-year-old causes many questions for moms: what can be given, and in what quantities. In fact, the diet is very similar to the diet menu of adults. It is better to give preference to boiled or stewed vegetables and meat. You can give bread, fish and sour-milk products.
- The regime of the day should be created individually, taking into account the needs for games, food and sleep. On average, children in 11 months sleep twice during the day and at night, the rest of the time devoting to games.
- Children eleven months are very interested in books, so read as many fairy tales and show on bright pictures. It is only better to buy children's books from cardboard, and not thin paper, since the baby will be harder to break.
- Communicate with the baby and name all the items that he points with his finger. It will be better if you do not just say what this or that thing is called, but also tell in a simple way about its properties and purpose.
