The 11-month-old baby has grown. He can do many things, but he wants even more. The main thing is not to limit his curiosity (if it is safe).

Most children by this age are making their first steps. The kid does not need shoes to walk at home. If he walks barefoot on surfaces with different textures - tile, parquet, carpet, it is useful for the harmonious development of his legs.

Now in the physical development of the child appears a dance. Of course, this is still a kind of movement for music, but this is only the beginning! More often include fun music and sing with him.

The baby's dream is also quite long. Many children by the age of 11 months have already slept twice during the day, some only once.

Improved motor skills, in particular - fine motor skills. The child can already turn over the pages of a cardboard book, crumples and tears the paper, though not accurately, but - turns the pages of a regular book.

In the diet, too, there are changes - the child can eat soft fruits on his own. Do not let the child eat solid fruit or vegetables by himself (apple, carrots), the child can bite off a piece, can not chew (there are no chewing teeth yet, and the gums do not break a firm fruit) and aspirate (inhale) it. Solid fruit, for now, gives in a crushed form, while soft (for example, a banana) will teach the child to bite and chew.

The child became more independent. He learns to understand what he wants and what he does not want. His actions become purposeful. A little researcher is interested in absolutely everything. I hope you have already closed all household chemicals under the granary lock and cleaned everything sharp, fragile away from his tenacious pens.

With each month the child's game becomes more complicated. By the age of 11 months - 1 year, he is ready for the first story game. The kid always waits for your praise. You can teach him in the form of a game to help you. For example, put scattered toys in the basket. It's never too early to start teaching.

The child communicates more actively. It actively uses onomatopoeia and simple words. Reading books with bright pictures is a useful and fascinating activity. Often children themselves look at pictures in a book, turning over tight cardboard pages - it's 5 minutes of free time for mom. Use it!

At this time the child:
♦ Independently stand at the pedestal, walk along it.

♦ Climb up a small hill and descend from it.

♦ Show body parts on other people (nose, mouth, eyes).

♦ Wear rings on the pyramid without the correct sequence.

♦ Turn over the pages of the cardboard book.

♦ Independently drinks from a drinker or mugs.

♦ Some children go without help.

♦ Gives a familiar toy on request.

Another important point to be discussed in the family is discipline. The most effective discipline is simply successive actions. If something is forbidden, it is always forbidden, regardless of whether the child asks or cries or, of course, the mood of the parent. If one parent forbids something, the other parent should not allow it. A child should have no confusion in his head.

The better-developed coordination of the child's movements and fine motor skills, the more complex the developing games. Now you can use various puzzles-inserts, complicate the sorters. Usually, the kid copes well with 2-3 forms (circle, square, triangle) and tries to add the others.

 

Sun games are great for a grown-up kid. Usually, children repeat for adults what they see every day: laying clothes in a basin, putting it back in a washing machine, knocking with a toy hammer and talking on the phone. Always remember: "Children see, children do".

The child has already well remembered where the mother's nose, mouth, and eyes. And now show me where he has these parts of his body. Expand his horizons.

Books. Children listen to them with pleasure and look at the pictures. Try not to sit on your knees while sitting down, but sit across from him so that he can see your facial expressions and articulation. Emotions are a very important detail of a fairy tale.

Simple help around the house is what the child will do best. Of course, while it is absolutely difficult to name the help, it can help you collect your toys and put them in a box.

Teach him to speak the right words, say your actions.

A child is a small experimenter. He tastes everything new. Many people like to experiment with food and new tastes. Others, on the contrary, do not crave a new meal. Push, offer, but do not force.

The hearing of the child is very sensitive. He perfectly hears and easily responds to his name.

The kid already knows how to get angry, get upset, have fun, get bored. And this is not the whole spectrum of his emotions.

If by the age of 1 year the child has at least one full word in the speech, then the child's neuropsychic development is normal. Do not compare, please, your child with a peer-chatterbox. They are different children and they have the right to individual development. Compare your child to himself.

Now the baby starts using simplified words ("yum-yum", "bu", "yes", "must", "give"), actively uses onomatopoeia. Talk to him more often - this will supplement his vocabulary, and he will be more willing to share new words with you.
