Development of the child in 6 months
Children 6 months are already more independent andare mobile. With each passing day, the number of skills and abilities acquired by them increases. It is at this age that lure is introduced for the first time - preparation for the subsequent transition to a common table. What is it, the child's development in 6 months?
For a start, let's look at the indicators of physicalhealth. Over the previous month, the baby, on average, gained 650 grams of weight, and the growth for these six months increased by 15-17 cm. A six-month-old child continues to sleep 2-3 times during the day. His night sleep is usually strong, calm and prolonged (about 10-11 hours without waking up). Development of a child in 6 months allows you to transfer it to five meals a day with a long night interval between meals. The basis of the baby's diet is still breastmilk. If necessary, these children are fed a mixture. Begin the introduction of complementary foods, which can be vegetable mashed potatoes, dairy-free and gluten-free cereal, diluted with boiled water fruit juice.
Development of a child at 6 months clearly reflects hisachievements. He closely watches the adults and actively imitates them. Want to know what a child can do in 6 months? Firstly, such a kid tries to pronounce the sounds he hears. Full of curiosity, he can even feel the mouth of a talking person to better understand how different sounds are produced. Although the child can hardly say anything in words, he has already studied the names of his surroundings. Do you want to check whether this is so? Name the subject and carefully see if the infant turns his head towards the named object. Also, it should be noted that when manipulating objects and games, a child can easily hold several small objects in the handle and at the same time calmly shift them from one hand to another. Studied already baby and the technique of "throwing" toys. This process fascinates most children at the age of six months. They throw toys away from wherever they can: from the arena, the bed, the sofa, etc. The child with interest "watches" the flight of the toy, listens to new sounds, reacts joyfully to them. Tie a rope (maximum 20 cm.) To the toy - and it will be fun to pull it to him. The kid is already able to assemble the toys into one large container, so he needs to be taught to clean up after himself, be more careful and disciplined.
As a rule, children by the time they sit down themselves,However, if your baby has sat down a month later - it's okay, just we are all different and each has its own time frame for achieving certain skills. In no case should you sit the baby in the pillows, nothing good for his musculoskeletal system will not end.
Some kids holding onto the crossbar of the bedor the arena mesh, are already trying to stand on the legs. But, as a rule, such attempts end in an awkward fall. Also, the child's development in 6 months allows him to crawl to the toy for as much as 20-30 cm. However, this is still only the prerequisites of a real crawl, which will manifest itself closer to 8 months. At this time, you need to think about expanding the space of the baby, because the arena becomes too small for him. You can allow him to crawl on a blanket or a blanket, laid on the floor, before removing from the access zone all potentially dangerous items.
How much the child's development in 6 months will bein many respects depends on the adults around him: does the nutrition and the regime of the baby's day correspond to his age characteristics, how organized is his leisure, is the attention paid to the games with the child, to doing with him special physical exercises, to massage, etc.? An important factor is communication. The more adults talk with an infant, the better and faster it develops, especially its thinking and speech. Paying due attention to the baby now, the parents take care of his happy future.
