From the first steps to a confident gait: what do parents need to know?

Someone took their first steps before the age of one, someone worries their mother and does not rush to learn to walk. Each baby has its own pace and characteristics of development, and the task of a responsible parent is to understand the child as much as possible and create an optimal environment for him to develop. What are the normal stages of skill development? How can you help your child learn to walk? What actions should not be taken? The answers to the most important questions were collected by child development specialists from the Sozvezdie network of Montessori centers.

When will the baby start walking?

Young parents often look forward to their baby’s first steps. Usually we are guided that somewhere in the year the child already begins to walk, but in practice, of course, it happens in different ways.

Babies walk between 9 and 18 months

Some babies take their first steps as early as 9 months. Most likely, in general, they are somewhat ahead of their peers and have already passed all the previous stages of development of the body and brain, but still you should be very careful about such “early” pedestrians, as they often surprise their parents with sudden falls “out of the blue”. Do not worry and just make sure that the falls happen in the safest way, very soon this stage will pass, and the child will stand on his feet much more confidently.

Other children, on the contrary, frighten their mother and father by the fact that they have not yet learned to walk even by the age of 15 months. Despite the fact that others will convince you of the abnormality of this alignment, in fact, the age norm is the interval between 9 and 18 months. Follow the general development of your “late” pedestrian and be sure that very soon he will start walking.

Children, on average, begin to take their first independent steps from 9 months to 1.5 years. However, the time to master the skill is highly dependent on the individual characteristics of the child and numerous external factors, so there are cases that are outside this range. You should not worry too much if your baby is a little beyond the age norms, but if something bothers you in the general condition of the child (does not cope well with simpler movements, does not follow the toy with his eyes, does not sleep well, slowly gains weight, etc.) you should consult a child development specialist for a face-to-face consultation.

Development of muscles and coordination

<

Of course, the degree of development of muscles and coordination of the baby has a great influence on the ability of the child to walk. In order for the child’s body to develop harmoniously from the first days of life, provide the baby with the opportunity to move freely (buy comfortable loose clothes, give the child enough space to move), and also include children’s gymnastics in the crumbs routine, gently stimulating the child to strain the muscles of the arms, legs, back and abs, and use coordination exercises:

Passage of the main stages of skill development

Before he can start running around the apartment, the baby has to learn many other skills that will prepare him for independent walking. Usually, you can notice that by the time of his first steps, the baby is already confidently turning over and sitting, able to crawl, standing and taking steps with the support of adults or leaning on something, rises from the floor, leaning on pieces of furniture. All these actions signal the normal physical development of the child, which means that he will learn to walk very soon.

We offer you a table of the main achievements of the baby related to walking, which are worth paying attention to. Remember that all children develop differently, so some babies simply jump over some stages (for example, crawling on all fours or walking on palms and feet), however, if you notice a strong discrepancy with our table, it is worth discussing this issue with a pediatrician .

What does he do?

When does a skill appear?

Description

Creeps

6 – 8 months

Crawling is a very important stage in the development of the baby, because this is the first way of his independent movement in space. The crawling technique has changed over the course of its existence: already at about 5 months, children begin to crawl on their stomach, and then move on to 4 points of support.

Gets up and walks on furniture

9 – 13 months

At this age, babies usually learn to walk on a bed or coffee table (something that is stable enough to support almost the entire weight of the child). It is perfectly normal that the baby does not walk while holding your hand, because this task requires much more coordination.

Turns to reach an interesting object behind his back

10 – 11 months

Turning 180 degrees from a sitting position, and especially standing, is not such an easy task that requires good coordination.

Moves on hands and feet

10 – 12 months

Don’t worry if one day you notice how the baby moves on his hands and feet with his butt up. This is a completely normal stage of development. Not all babies use this method of movement, and those who do switch to walking rather quickly.

Walks while you hold both hands

10 – 12 months

Let at this moment almost the entire weight of the baby in your hands, the feeling of adhesion to the surface and such first steps are very important for the subsequent development of the child.

Gets up and down on his knees, holding onto a support, and a little later on his own

11 – 13 months

When sitting on the floor, the baby can stand up through the kneeling position and then sit back down. This task requires excellent coordination, especially if support

is not at hand.

walks hand in hand

11 – 13 months

The muscles are not yet ready to fully balance, but the legs already know their business. At this stage, it is important for you to hold the baby’s hand very carefully, doing this at the level of his shoulder, so as not to injure the delicate children’s joints

First steps on your own

11 – 14 months

Finally, the baby took his first hesitant and clumsy, but completely independent steps. Do not worry – the baby will gain ease of walking very soon!

Sit down after walking a few meters

12 – 14 months

You should not go on a long hike with a baby who has just taken his first steps. A new skill takes a lot of physical and mental strength, so it is not surprising that after a meter or two the kids literally “drain” on the floor and sit down. This behavior is completely normal and will become less frequent as the muscles become stronger and more confident in walking.

Gets up from lying position

12 – 15 months

Such a task requires a whole plan in your head: roll over, lean on your hands, turn your knees, stand on your feet. If the baby copes with it, then everything is in order with his physical development.

Climbs stairs

13 -15 months

Most likely, steps designed for the growth of an adult will be a formidable obstacle for a baby, but as he develops, he will be able to overcome them by connecting his hands and sitting down on the step.

Walks alone

13 – 15 months

Learning to walk is about discovering a world of endless possibilities for exploration. The kid already confidently uses movement on two legs, turns, starts moving and stops without losing balance. But still, the old methods remain more reliable, so do not be afraid if the baby goes back to all fours when tired or encounters an unusual coating. It will soon pass.

Lifts toys while standing

13 – 15 months

Your little one has already learned to keep his balance when performing more complex tasks. Just imagine how you need to redistribute your balance so as not to fall forward when you try to pick something up from the floor while standing. Now see how your little one does it.

Many parents agree that the age at which the baby learns to walk more depends not even on the physical development, but on the temperament of the baby. More active children are more likely to walk earlier than their quieter peers. But even this observation is not a strict regularity.

Our table shows only the approximate age and order of appearance of skills with which the development of a particular child may not coincide, so it is more important for you to have a general idea of ​​​​what movements the child’s independent walking skill is associated with and understand how to gently guide the development of an “overstayed” baby with through developmental exercises.

How to teach a child to walk?

This question is asked by many parents, which means that child development specialists already have several answers and recommendations.

Should I buy a walker?

Whatever baby product manufacturers say, child development researchers have found no evidence that baby walkers are effective. On the contrary, the use of walkers with tight fixation disrupts the training of the baby’s muscles, and he himself learns to move on his toes.

Instead of a walker, which is not recommended, you can buy a moving support for your baby: a toy stroller or a car large enough to help keep balance when moving.

Exercises to help mom

There are many games and exercises to help your baby learn to walk. Here are just a few of them:

  • Place a chair, table and other furniture close to each other to create your own “route” for your baby. With the help of support on objects, it is much easier to move around on your feet.

  • Sit in front of a standing baby so that there is literally half a meter between them. Stretch out your hands to him and call the baby, and he will definitely take a step towards.

  • Remove shoes. Shoes often get in the way of children who are just learning to walk (imagine if you were taught to write with gloves on). The ability to walk barefoot will allow the baby to quickly coordinate his body and learn to walk confidently.

  • Give your baby freedom, but provide a safe space. Not a single child has learned to walk without falling, so instead of preventing them, it is better to equip the nursery so that landings do without consequences. Remove sharp corners of furniture (some parents buy special pads or simply cover them with foam rubber), make sure that the baby cannot reach unsafe supports (unstable and fragile objects, such as a hanging tablecloth or a glass vase standing on the floor), put pillows on the floor or blankets.

Conclusions

The age at which the baby learns to walk independently depends on many factors: heredity and temperament of the child, the pace of his physical development, the saturation of the environment and the involvement of adults in communication with the baby. Undoubtedly, the attentive attitude of parents, careful gymnastics and prepared space at home stimulate the development of the child, and unnoticed problems and the lack of a suitable environment, on the contrary, slow him down.

Conclusion

Age 9-18 months is a special age for any child. Toddlers have already reached sufficient development of all their organs of perception and are moving to the stage of active exploration of the space around. Of course, the ability to move quickly and free up hands opens up completely new possibilities and requires much more space for the young explorer.

It is for these kids that the children’s Montessori Center “Sozvezdiye” opened developmental classes with their mother. In our classes, under the guidance of experienced teachers, parents introduce children to a completely new environment for them, receive the most important recommendations from specialists and find support from other parents, as well as gently accustom the kids to the atmosphere of the kids club, which will undoubtedly facilitate future adaptation to kindergarten.

Closer to the age of two, we already offer parents short stay groups, where the specialists of our center not only look after the children, but also organize various developmental activities for them.

Children’s Montessori club “Constellation” is a friendship from the first steps to the first class. Sign up for a free class and come meet us!

What colors do children begin to distinguish first?

After birth, the baby enters the bright surrounding world with many shades. But vision in the initial period of life is still very imperfect. Up to 2-3 months, the child distinguishes only light and shadow, not having color perception. Then gradually he begins to discover different tones. Let’s find out which of them he recognizes first.

A newborn child distinguishes only dark and light spots, reacts to a light source, without distinguishing colors. That is why you should not turn off the lights in the room where the baby sleeps completely. Waking up, he begins to look for a lamp with his eyes – this calms him, and also contributes to the development of the oculomotor muscles.

A child’s color vision is formed by cones, light-sensitive receptors in the retina that convert light waves into electrical impulses. Signals are transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve, and are processed into the image we see.
In infants, this process is fully operational by about three months of age.

What color does the baby see first?

The first color that the baby begins to distinguish is red, as it has the longest spectral wavelength of 620-760 nanometers. That is why it is recommended to buy the first rattles and soft toys for the baby in red shades. Gradually, yellow objects can be added to them. At the same time, do not overwhelm him with toys in large quantities. Four or five pieces is the best option. Let him focus on them, study carefully the shape and texture. By the way, this is also an important nuance – experts advise buying items of different sizes, appearance and materials: rubber, plastic, soft, with fillers. So the baby, in addition to visual perception, will learn the world through touch, understand that all objects are different to the touch.

With a large number of toys at the same time, the baby is unable to concentrate properly on any one, sorting through them in a row. It is better to let him play with a few, having thoroughly studied them, and after a week you can replace these toys with new ones.

Colors of the cold spectrum

Approximately by six months, the baby begins to distinguish the colors of the green spectrum, and then, by 8-9 months – and blue.
