11 months old baby what? Child development in the eleventh month of life. Emotional and psychological development of the child

At the age of 11 months, the child’s development has “stepped” far forward. It’s difficult to say whether caring for him has become easier, but the little one can already do a lot: sit, crawl, walk.

Development also concerns the formation of skills to eat independently. A bright cup will certainly interest the baby, and he will want to use it for drinking. The baby wants to do everything himself, so you can offer him a spoon. It should also be bright and attractive to the child.

Try to accustom your fidget to something new when he is calm. The feeding process should be enjoyable and comfortable for the baby. Children's dishes should be made of high-quality plastic and be suitable in size for the child's hands.

The menu remains the same, but the portions offered to the baby should be slightly increased. Then the child’s development will be complete: by the end of the 11th month he will be able to gain about 350 g in weight and grow a little.

The family menu is not entirely suitable for a baby, so there is no need to rush to introduce him to dishes prepared according to recipes for adults. But eating together with mom and dad at a common table is useful for the baby to develop ideas about family traditions.

A calm environment and the presence of parents have a beneficial effect on the formation of the child’s psyche. Mom and dad will serve as his standard of behavior at the table. By copying parents, the baby will quickly learn to eat on his own.

Do not show increased attention to the baby at such moments. It would seem that a child should not have fun while eating, but he is still small. Let him play with food, this is necessary for development - this is how the little one comprehends the world.

What is on the table?

In principle, there are no new products on the baby’s menu. A child's nutrition at 11 months is the same as a month or two ago. Although many healthy dishes are already available to him.

Of course, it is recommended to postpone foods such as cakes, mushrooms, kebabs and the like for later. Introduce everything new into the menu gradually, starting with a teaspoon. If you notice signs of an allergic reaction, discontinue the new product immediately.

At 11 months, the baby has enough teeth to switch from vegetable and fruit purees to finely chopped fruits, berries and vegetables.

The stomach becomes stronger and is able to digest not only porridge, but also meat products. These can be low-fat steamed meat cutlets, meatballs, boiled chicken. All meat products must be cut into small pieces before feeding the baby. They need to be combined with products already known to the child - vegetable purees, cereals. At this age, it is better not to try to add new products to the menu every week and not to experiment with unfamiliar dishes.

With proper care, the basis of a baby's diet at 11 months should be food rich in vitamins and microelements.

Vitamin salad is very useful, the recipe for which is simple: the dish is prepared from grated carrots and apples, seasoned with sour cream with the addition of a couple of drops of vegetable oil. To ensure that your baby likes the salad, you can use a small amount of sugar.

You can also prepare fruit salads, for example, from apple, banana and seasoning them with natural homemade yogurt.

About the importance of drinking

The diet at this age is supplemented with various juices, teas and decoctions. You can make fresh juices yourself, for example, from apples. There is no need to downplay the importance of ordinary water, which, like no other drink, quenches thirst well.

Proper drinking saves the child's body from dehydration. A child at this stage of development drinks about 200 ml of water per day.

From berries and fruits according to proven recipes. For preparation you will need:

• berries or fruits;
• purified water;
• potato starch;
• sugar.

First, you need to pass the fruits through cheesecloth or a fine sieve so that they release the juice. Set aside the juice, add water to the berries and boil for 15-20 minutes. After this, cool slightly and strain, add starch and gradually bring to a boil again. When the jelly has cooled completely, pour the previously squeezed juice into it and stir well. Give to baby slightly warmed up.

Take note

1. Many people love potatoes, but you shouldn't cook them often. Before cooking, tubers need to be soaked in cold water for about 40 minutes.
2. You can add sugar, salt and fresh herbs in small quantities to children's dishes.
3. You should not give fried, smoked, spicy or canned food (with the exception of canned food for children).
4. Eliminate foods from the menu that may cause allergies. Among them are honey, nuts, citrus fruits, chocolate.
5. The diet should include 5 meals a day.
6. It is recommended to chop food with a fork.

About breastfeeding

At 11 months, the baby’s nutrition has its own nuances. On the one hand, a child’s stomach is already adapted to many “adult” foods, and this is a huge plus - many mothers gradually wean their child off the breast.

If possible, breastfeed your baby for as long as possible - this is important for his development. At eleven months, there may be two feedings: in the morning and before bed. This is the most convenient mode for mother and baby.

Milk is still important

Milk and fermented milk products are a necessary component of a child’s menu at 11 months. It is also necessary to consume cottage cheese, because the substances it contains are building materials for bones, teeth and hair.

Regarding cow's milk for feeding a child under one year of age, expert opinions differ. Some say that it is beneficial only for children after one year, others do not recommend giving cow's milk until 1.5-2 years of age.

Baby cereals continue to be popular. They saturate the body with microelements and satisfy hunger. Some babies refuse to eat them as the one-year crisis approaches - just at 11 months; this is a natural phenomenon in the process of child development.

You can solve a problem with creative ideas. The main thing is to put children's imagination to work and turn boring eating into an exciting gameplay.

How to deal with whims?

At 11 months, children become pickier about food. They can choose only one product at lunch, refusing the rest.

You should not force feed your fidget. The child will let you know when he is hungry. This advice is relevant only if there are no long breaks in eating - more than three hours.

If your baby does not show interest in food for a long time and seems apathetic, pay attention to the accompanying symptoms and ask your pediatrician for help.

If the child has not finished everything on the plate, do not force him under any circumstances. This leads not only to health problems (the stomach stretches, and if you overfeed regularly, obesity and gastritis are possible over time), but also psychological - the baby develops an aversion to food.

Put on the plate as much as he eats - that means that’s what is needed for the development and health of the child’s body.

With age, both appetite and taste preferences may change. It also depends on your health status, mood and level of physical activity.

The reason for refusing to eat may be “snacks” in the diet. A bun, a snack, an apple on a walk - this is a lot for a child’s stomach, and at dinner he doesn’t eat even half of what is offered. Therefore, try to formulate your diet as correctly as possible.

Your baby is growing and developing. Every day he acquires new skills and knowledge, every day he discovers something interesting. 11 months is already quite a serious age, because in just 30 days the baby will have her first birthday celebration. During this period, children do not yet have special contact with peers. All his communication is limited to his parents and loved ones. Looking at her beloved child, every mother knows that her baby is the smartest and the best. But does his development correspond to his age? What if he is ahead or behind? To understand this, you need to know what a child should be able to do at 11 months.

Physical development

The normal weight of a child at 11 months is between 8 and 10 kilograms and depends on the weight of the baby at birth, the gender and nutrition of the baby. Weight gain in the 11th month is about 350 - 400 grams. If a child is not gaining weight at 11 months, you should consult a pediatrician and adjust the baby’s feeding regimen.

A child's height at 11 months is on average 75 cm; in the eleventh month, children grow by 1 - 1.5 centimeters.

Parents often ask: how many teeth should there be at 11 months? Everything is very individual. Most babies at this age already have 4 teeth, but there are also completely healthy children whose first tooth appears after a year. If your child is growing and developing normally, but has no teeth, don't worry. Ask your parents what time you started teething.

Baby's height and weight chart at 11 months:

Motor skills

At 11 months, the baby is already actively crawling and walking, adhering to support. Many children are already “walking” with their parents hand in hand. The child learns to maintain balance in an upright state - he can squat to pick up his favorite toy, and then straighten up again. Can sit for a long time without support, legs extended forward.

At this age, children can already manage to climb a small staircase. Often this process occurs on all fours and for quite a long time, but the fact remains a fact. After all, the kid had never been able to do this before.

Children at 11 months become more independent and can move around the house without the help of their parents. It is necessary to take care of their safety and remove all piercing, cutting objects and things that could harm the child.

To do this, parents are advised to get down to the baby’s level and take a good look at all the objects around that they want to grab, drag or taste. All drawers need special clips to prevent a curious baby from pinching his tiny fingers. Special upholstery for furniture corners is on sale.

Your child is still learning to walk. A strong fall or impact with an object can frighten him and leave a negative impression. This is the first step towards possible further delay in physical development. The child will simply be afraid and refuse to stand on his feet. Therefore, until his movement skills become stronger, it is better to isolate and soften all corners. Of course, it’s impossible to protect your baby from everything, and there’s no need to be upset if he falls and breaks his knee. But it’s better to try to protect it as much as possible.

Fine motor functions become more precise. If earlier the little one tried to grab an interesting object with all his fingers (and this was not always successful), now he can carefully take the thing he likes with two fingers. He moves it from palm to palm, examines it carefully, and tries it. He acquires favorite toys that he does not part with and carries them with him everywhere. Sometimes kids even refuse to go for a walk without their favorite doll or car.

An 11-month-old child can boast of the ability to drink from a cup practically without spilling liquid. Very often at this age they begin to reach for a spoon to eat on their own or to try to feed mom and dad. The same thing happens with a comb. The kid picks up a comb and tries to make a “hairstyle.”

At eleven months, the baby already feels quite independent in order to dress himself. He himself tries to put his pen into his sleeve, put on his shoes and hat. Parents should encourage this desire in every possible way and help the child cope with new tasks.

Games at 11 months

Unscrewing bottle caps can become a baby's favorite pastime; such a simple activity perfectly develops fine motor skills of the baby's fingers. He holds the bottle tightly with one hand, leaning it against himself, and unscrews the cap with the other. Usually, after obtaining the desired result, interest in the bottle disappears and the parents have to put the cap back on, while the little one is looking for new adventures.

By this age, the child already understands exactly where mom is, where dad is, where the doll is, where the bear is, etc. He very willingly and with undisguised pleasure brings various items at the request of his parents. He also begins to navigate in space and understands the concepts of “front”, “behind”, “side”, “above”, “below”.

This age period is best for gradually starting to make games more difficult. That is, ask the baby not just to bring a doll, but to feed it, put it to bed, change clothes, etc. These so-called “role-playing” games greatly stimulate the development of the child’s thinking and physical skills.

If it seems to you that the baby is not as active as he should be, then try to stimulate him. Scatter the toys in different parts of the room and ask him to collect them. This will force the baby to walk or actively crawl. Assemble and disassemble the pyramid with it, trying to maintain the order of the elements in size. Explain to your child why it would be correct to assemble the toy this way and not another way. And you will be surprised how quickly he will understand you and begin to do the same on his own.

During this period, visiting some new place can greatly please your baby. Take him for a walk to the park or to visit friends. This will improve these adaptive social skills.

Also, “petting zoos” bring great pleasure to children. At the age of 11 months, they can already distinguish a toy object from a living one, so a trip to chickens, ducklings, and goslings will be accompanied by a storm of positive emotions and will allow the baby to demonstrate his new skills.

Tactile sensations are very important during this period, so let your child run barefoot on the grass, pet pets, and pick flowers.

At this time, you can slowly teach your baby to go potty. Dr. Komarovsky considers it normal to “delay” this process for up to 1.5 - 2 years. So don’t worry if your baby doesn’t immediately understand what you want from him.

Before the age of 1 year, the child is actively growing and developing. At 11 months, he already confidently sits, crawls, learns to talk and walk. The words spoken by the people around him are no longer just a set of sounds for him, he can already quite distinguish some of them. An 11-month-old child has a good understanding of the meaning of words such as “yes,” “may,” “give,” “no,” and “can’t.” The baby's vocabulary is growing every day; he tries to pronounce some words quite consciously. Parents should talk to their child more often, explain to him their actions and actions, because it is during this period that he learns to perceive and evaluate the reality around him.

Educational games are an integral part of the life of a growing person; the “ladushki” and “magpie-crow” that have survived to this day cause indescribable delight in an almost one-year-old child; he tries to repeat familiar speech patterns after adults and moves his fingers and arms to the beat of the words.

Many parents are faced with the fact that their 11-month-old child does not sleep well at night. In this case, the reason may be hidden either in the emotional sphere, or the baby is worried about some physical factors. Activities before bedtime are the most common reason why an 11-month-old baby has trouble sleeping at night, and it's fairly easy to fix. All active games should occur during the daytime; it is also advisable to exclude feeding the baby immediately before going to bed.

A soothing massage before bed can help your child relax, as can bathing. If the baby is worried about some physical factor, for example, growing teeth, such night vigil will temporarily have to be tolerated. Also, the cause of poor sleep in an 11-month-old child may be a lack of vitamins and macroelements, so a consultation with a pediatrician in this case will not be superfluous.

Physical development of an 11 month old baby

Often, before the age of 1 year, most children are already taking their first steps, and some are even walking confidently. An 11-month-old child actively strives to walk independently, but not everyone succeeds. Don’t be upset if your baby can’t stand and walk for a long time; it won’t take long before he fully masters this skill.

A child of 11 months can already crawl and walk on all fours; sometimes even an adult finds it difficult to keep up with him. The baby can be taught to roll forward and backward, roll from the stomach to the back and back. Walking on a log or any other narrow surface perfectly develops the vestibular apparatus and coordination of a child’s movements. Parents, holding the baby by the hands, should help him carry out such a promenade, which he will undoubtedly like.

Don’t forget about gymnastics for children; regularly performed exercises will help your child feel his body better, control his arms and legs, and develop his general motor skills.

Educational games for 11 month old baby

Various educational games help to explore the world around us, develop fine motor skills, and at the same time discover something new and interesting every time; the main thing is to choose them in accordance with the age of the child. An 11-month-old child can perfectly manipulate cubes and pyramids and build various structures out of them. Such, at first glance, simple games develop the baby’s spatial thinking. He realizes that objects of different sizes can be combined into one large or several small structures.

Children at this age really like to play with bulk products - they eagerly pour beans, peas and corn from one container to another, mix them together and sort them into separate containers by type. Finger games, reading fairy tales and poems together also help the growing baby develop.

An 11-month-old baby can be taught to play with a ball, toss it up, catch and throw it. The baby will also enjoy playing on the educational mat, which is equipped with many different objects, both large and small, as well as toys with sound.

Nutrition for an 11 month old baby

At the age of 11 months, the baby is already well acquainted with complementary feeding, eats vegetable and fruit purees, juices and fermented milk products. His attitude towards food changes at this age, he distinguishes tastes and knows what foods he likes. He actively studies everything that is on his parents' plate, so you don't have to be afraid to invite the baby to try something new. In addition, 11 months is the same age when a child can begin to wean a child from breastfeeding.

An 11-month-old baby's menu can be varied by boiled eggs or steamed omelettes, boiled whole vegetables, fresh fruits, soups, chicken breast and bread. Adult food is not yet entirely suitable for a baby, because the diet of an 11-month-old child should contain limited quantities of salt and sugar, and fatty and fried foods should be completely excluded. Since the baby’s teeth are actively growing at this age, the food may not be ground too finely. However, the meat on the menu of an 11-month-old child must be separated into fibers; the baby is not yet able to handle it on his own.

At 11 months, the baby switches from a five-meal diet to a four-meal diet. This moment can be stressful for the baby, so giving up the evening snack should be gradual; before going to bed, you can give him a glass of milk with baby cookies for a while.

11 months is the age of discovery, new opportunities and skills for a child. The world around him gradually becomes clear to him, he learns to speak and walk, shows independence and interest in new subjects. Parents should pay as much attention as possible to their children, because spending time together is the key to a trusting relationship in the future. Do not underestimate the capabilities of an 11-month-old child; excessive guardianship can play a negative role in upbringing, because it will be difficult for the child to learn independence at an older age. It is no less important for a child to communicate with peers and strangers, because a trip to kindergarten is just around the corner, where his social adaptation will begin.

Video from YouTube on the topic of the article:

The first year of motherhood has almost come to an end with joyful troubles and worries. From an insecure and slightly frightened mother, every woman turns into an experienced know-it-all, capable of giving advice to everyone, and not only on the issue of raising children. Of course, behind us there are sleepless nights, colic, interruptions in breast milk, the first unsuccessful feeding and many other exciting troubles.

Just a little more and your baby will turn one year old. But for now, enjoy and watch your baby develop at 11 months. Without a doubt, he became taller, stronger, more active. He is playful and active, cheerful and cheerful. Every day he absorbs new skills and abilities and becomes more and more independent.

Indicators of normal physical development of a child at 11 months

Height and weight

Watching your baby, you are surprised to note how quickly your baby is growing and gaining weight. Over the current month, the baby has gained an average of 400–600 grams and has become 1.5–2 cm taller. Such statistics are generally accepted, but very conditional. All children are different and a child’s body weight and height depend solely on his diet, lifestyle and genetics. Don't be upset if your baby doesn't reach the average. According to pediatricians, active children are thinner, while calm children are always well-fed. So just watch your child and draw the appropriate conclusions.

“The first steps are very difficult...”

Due to his physical development, an 11-month-old child takes his first steps at this age independently. You have repeatedly observed how he deftly moves around his crib, holding on to the crossbar, but for some reason the baby does not dare to perform the same action on the floor. But now he is strong enough, more confident in his abilities, he moves boldly, holding your hand, and more and more often lets go of it and goes on an independent journey.

You watch with pleasure how your baby turns from a clumsy bear into a fidget. He stands up and sits down confidently, crawls quickly, is able to overcome obstacles, and gets down to the floor from the bed on his own. And most importantly, his every action is accompanied by a mass of positive emotions.

Emotional and psychological development of the child

The baby is developing and growing. The emotional coloring of all his sensations becomes brighter. Unpleasant situations are always accompanied by a child's cry, discontent, resentment, and sometimes even tears. No less violent emotions accompany positive events - the baby laughs, exclaims, and makes enthusiastic cries.

Despite a certain independence - the desire to walk, eat food, explore the territory of the house, the baby is very attached to his mother. She can’t even take a step without her fidget. Psychologists explain such excessive attachment by the subconscious reluctance of the child to become independent. Although each baby is individual: one is capable of throwing a tantrum at the sight of his mother closing the bathroom door behind her, others easily lose sight of the object of their adoration and explore new territories.

A psychological feature of the development of an 11-month-old child is the improvement of tactile sensations. At this age, a pretty face often shows an expression of disgust associated with spilled kefir, water, or spilled sugar. And it’s rarely possible to persuade a baby to run with his bare feet on the sand on the first try. There is no need to worry about this, such a reaction is quite justified; it is at this age that increased tactile sensitivity is observed in children. In a playful way, the baby needs to be introduced to new sensations, and over time they will definitely interest and please him.

Intellectual development and everyday skills

Every month of a child’s development is interesting and eventful. But it is possible that it is in the twelfth month that your the baby will consciously pronounce the first word. Of course, the child already babbles non-stop, but these are only fragments and syllables. He will say his first “mom”, “dad”, “uncle”, “give”, and by the year his vocabulary will grow to 10 words.

Learning by playing

Experts recommend devoting the lion's share of a baby's waking time to play. At this age, children become interested in any activity. The kids are especially enthusiastic about playing sorters; they like pyramids and large mosaics. But still, the most interesting are household items. This is not surprising, because these are “toys” for adults. Involve your baby in your activities, if you are preparing dinner, allow him to put vegetables in a saucepan, when you clean up the apartment, let him use the vacuum cleaner, most importantly, follow the safety rules and do not leave the baby alone for a long time.

At this age, fine motor skills become more perfect; now the child can easily pick up a spoon on his own and try to absorb food. Of course, not everything turns out perfectly, most of the puree, soup or kefir is spilled, and, nevertheless, this desire should be encouraged in every possible way.

Any independent action of the child must be accompanied by positive emotions on your part. Praise your baby when he tries to unbutton his shoes or buttons, comb his hair, wash his face, or even brush his teeth. Of course, he doesn’t succeed in everything, but everything is interesting. A word of praise and your smile will become a serious incentive on the path to learning a new world.

Path to the potty

The cornerstone remains the issue of potty training the baby. Don't rush, watch your child. If the breaks between urination reach two or more hours, then try, but only while playing. Many children enjoy learning a new subject. If your child is capricious and afraid of the potty, do not persist, everything has its time.

Reading

Many experts claim that 11 months is the ideal age for your baby to consciously introduce books to books.. Of course, you have read poems and fairy tales to him before, but the baby has only now learned to perceive and understand the book. If you are a supporter of early child development, then this is the ideal time to practice reading, for example, using the Doman method.

Social skills

The baby already identifies himself as an individual, which is why he is very interested in playing in a group with other children. Be sure to visit playgrounds and parks, teach your baby to interact with other members of society. Go visit your peers and develop your child’s communication skills.

A new day for a child is an interesting journey into a land of new emotions and unknown discoveries. Give your baby every free minute, play with him, teach him, pamper him and educate him, because infancy is the happiest and most carefree period of life, which will fly by completely unnoticed.

The 11th month for some children will be marked by their first independent steps. But for most, this event will happen a little later. Don’t rush your child’s natural development, and don’t compare his achievements with the successes of other kids. Each child has its own unique face and equally unique development. And your task is to raise a person who is confident in his abilities.

At this age, the issue of organizing a safe space for your active toddler is especially acute. The baby not only actively moves around the apartment, he finds objects to study everywhere. But sometimes they are not entirely suitable for children's play. A child of this age is most interested in the question: “Is it possible to somehow use one object to do something with another?” Therefore, a young researcher, without hesitation, can pick up a frying pan that catches his eye and start banging it on the stool.

Playing with two objects at the same time, the baby comes up with the idea of ​​​​turning one of them into an instrument. In his actions, the child seems to separate the means and the result. The object used as a tool serves as a means for the little man, and the resulting effect is the result.

Depending on the tools used, you can get a rather unexpected, not always pleasant, result. Watch what ends up in your baby's hands. Replace the above-mentioned frying pan with a typewriter, and switch the attention to electrical appliances that almost all kids of this age demonstrate to a new game, which the tips below will help you organize.

The child continues to enjoy games “with communication,” singing “together” with his mother, but activities with toys, and those that make him think, come first. The time has come for pyramids, nesting dolls, all kinds of boxes and cups.

Learning to understand each other

The child willingly uses his babble to talk to a new person, and the baby enjoys experimenting with all kinds of sound effects. Being in a good mood, the baby pronounces bright, intonation-rich “monologues.” If he is irritated, he becomes silent or changes his intonation. At this age, the child develops the ability to imitate, and he tries to copy sounds and words that he does not yet have in his repertoire. The baby already understands some words and readily demonstrates his achievements in front of a familiar audience.

Despite the fact that the little one begins to feel like an independent person, he is still attached to his parents. If a stranger enters the room, the little man will cling to his parent’s leg and hold on to it until the “stranger” leaves.

Children who are very afraid of their parents leaving should be gradually accustomed to their temporary disappearance. Relatives or close friends who know the baby well can help you in this difficult matter - if the baby stays at home with someone he knows, it is much easier for him to say goodbye to his parents.

Motor skills of a child at 11 months

In the development of motor skills in children 11 months of age, noticeable developments are observed. One child is improving his crawling skills, and the other is already walking well. But in contrast to the baby, who persistently wants to walk and only walk, “crawling specialists” move much faster and maintain balance better.

When exploring new territory, a skilled crawler is less likely to harm itself. Let us note that, according to some researchers, the absence of the slider period in development affects the further development of spatial orientation. The baby needs to crawl a lot, walk along the support, independently controlling the load. Do not use a walker - only a natural transition to a vertical position will strengthen the back muscles and protect your little one from developing incorrect posture.

The child had a new achievement - he learned to tear paper. The baby grabs thin pages of a magazine or phone book and with a quick movement, turning his hand at the wrist, tears the sheets. Around this time, the baby may develop another interest - he will want to engage in construction, and for this purpose he uses cubes. Having placed one cube on top of another, the baby, of course, will then push and knock down his “structure.” However, you will soon notice that the height of the “tower” is increasing - the baby already wants to put a third on the second cube, and then a fourth.

I see, I listen, I feel...

An adult knows that the things we look at from afar do not become smaller. Being at the other end of the room, we can easily identify by eye a cup of the same size that is standing in front of us. This ability to take distance into account when determining the size of an object is called constancy of magnitude. Some psychologists believe that children gradually develop this ability, but it is still necessary for the child to have some training in perceiving an object.

In the behavior of a 10-11 month old child there are signs indicating the emergence of the concept of constancy of quantities. A large dog, seen for the first time, scares the baby, even if it is on the other side of the room, but the little one wants to play with a small dog that is very close.

The baby already has an idea of ​​how certain things should look and demonstrates this in various ways. Give your child a cup upside down and he will immediately turn it over. At this age stage, the child’s sound perception continues to improve. Hearing something behind him, the baby immediately turns and looks at the place where the sound source should be. The baby can distinguish family members solely by voice and by slight changes in tone understands the mood of loved ones - anger, a desire to tease, calmness, joy.

In the previous month, the child was still attracted to emptying boxes and jars. Now he begins to be interested in their content. The inquisitive little one puts his fingers in his nose and mouth, puts rings on the rod of the pyramid, and hides little dolls in toy furniture. The child is very interested in the problem of what goes with what. He will work hard trying to fit the matryoshka doll into the smaller figurine, making dissatisfied sounds as he does so.

Your child may also be attracted to another activity - throwing objects into a box. When the child was smaller, he already threw toys at her, but these were random movements. Several months have passed, and the baby has learned to purposefully throw an object into the box; now he will experiment by throwing objects. The toddler can hold a bunch of keys over a saucepan, and then open his fingers to check how the keys jingle at the bottom of the vessel.

Lesson with an 11 month old child

Talk to your child through a cardboard tube, trying to change your voice. You will be surprised at how attentively your son or daughter will listen to you, then have some fun by saying sounds like “ba-ba-ba” or “ma-ma-ma” into the phone! Give the phone to the baby. He may want to repeat these sounds. Hide a clock or small radio under your pillow. The child will look for the clock, listening to where it is ticking. Such an experience will improve the baby’s ability to listen.

Take a cereal box and turn it into a baby drum. Give your child a wooden spoon as a stick and show him how to hit the box with it. A handful of clothespins and a plastic bottle will allow your child to practice filling and emptying the container. At first, the little one will need your help, especially if he needs to shake out the clothespins. When your baby has had enough of playing with the bottle, you can give him an empty cereal box or a coffee can - they will significantly add to the fun.

Place a small toy in the box. Let the child try to get the toy - this experience will help him better understand what is “inside” and what is “outside”. Tie a ribbon or cord around the toys that your child likes to play with while sitting in his high chair, and tie the other end of the ribbon to the arm of a chair or to a table. The child will enjoy lifting the toy by pulling the string.

Physical development of a child 11 months

If your baby is just learning to walk, give him a small stroller to push. This is a useful exercise with which the baby learns to maintain balance and stop in time. To make a lightweight stroller more stable, place a heavy book in it.

During your walk you can find a lot of things to do with your children. Show your child how to collect pebbles, twigs or leaves into a pile. This will not only help improve the motor activity of your son or daughter, but also stimulate the development of the sense of touch.

If your baby has learned to climb stairs, show him how to go down on his stomach or on his feet. It is better to show your child a safe way to go down the stairs than to expect that the baby will never end up on them.
