Evaluation of the development of a one-year-old baby

Young mothers like to compare their babies: someone is already walking, and someone else is just creeping, someone is completely master of speech, someone knows how to roll a wheelchair. The achievements of our crumbs bring us, mothers, great joy and a sense of pride in our child.

To determine if your one-year-old kid is developing correctly and in time, spend small test games with him. Such an assessment of the development of a one-year-old baby will allow mother to be calm for the health of the child, or, conversely, to think about the visible problems of development.

To properly assess the development of your crumbs, it is better to carry out similar tests not one by one, but several times a day, so that the little one is not tired. Remember that a child learns the world in a game, so the evaluation of development is carried out exclusively in the form of a game. Still need to consider the fact that much depends on the mood of the child and his health. Conduct tests when a child sleeps and eats, so that nothing spoils his mood.

- One-year-old kid can independently stand with a support, can walk with the support of an adult or independently. The kid can lift a leg and put it on a small step.

- Kid can play with the pyramid, collects and parses it independently, he builds a turret of 3-4 cubes.

"A kid knows how to drink from a mug on his own." He tries to eat himself with a spoon. If you give him a comb, he will mimic your movements and comb your hair, knows how to comb the doll.

- The kid pronounces the words and realizes what they mean. Master the first words: give, av-av, meow, buy-by, mother, woman, dad. At this age the child's dictionary consists of an average of 10-15 words, which he often uses meaningfully.

- A kid behaves naturally only with people he knows. If a stranger comes to visit you, then, usually, the kid starts to hesitate or is frightened of it and some time does not slazit from the mother's knees, watching the stranger with watchful eyes. It is interesting that when an unknown person is a kid, he never lets himself spit his soup or roll on the floor in hysterics, so he can only behave with his parents.

- At this time the character of the baby continues to form. He begins to actively express his displeasure, if he does not like something: he clicks his hands on the table, stomps his feet, loudly cries and cries. The child already understands that with the help of crying, he can force parents to do this or that.

- The child understands that he is asked to do the adults and is able to perform simple tasks: bring cubes, give dad a book, show the tongue. The kid understands perfectly the meaning of the word "impossible", but does not always react to it. At this age, the child, hearing the ban, leaves his occupation for a while, and then again continues his work started.

- Kid can play with a dough or plasticine: rolls sausages and makes pancakes. Of course, he does this not without the help of adults. Similar exercises develop small motor skills.

The kid already has his own interests and preferences, for example, in the book he has his own favorite picture or his favorite poem, when he hears that he starts to show his joy vigorously. He likes to play in a certain place in the room. Also, taste preferences are formed, which can not be ignored.

- The kid increasingly manifests independence, but often stubbornness and perseverance in achieving his: going for a walk, he wants to put on a hat or pull on his shoes. Let the child be independent.

- At this age, the first attempts at story games for the first time appear: the baby swings a doll or plays with a typewriter for a long time, takes his mother's hand, reads books and looks at pictures himself.

- The kid understands the generalized concepts: cubes, balls, dolls, toys, books.

- The kid loves to study his own body: he looks at his fingers and legs.

If your baby does all that is needed or even more, it means that everything is in order with health and development. It is quite normal, if the kid does not know how to do one or two exercises from this list.

But if the child has the signs described below, then it should immediately be shown to his specialist to prevent possible delays in mental development.

- harmful behavior for themselves.

- silence or inability to imitate sounds and use them.

- apathy to classes and to toys.

- lack of response to strangers.
