Children’s first steps are important for developing…
It is also an important sign of development for parents to watch for. Many paediatricians recommend that parents keep track of their child’s first steps in a baby book or journal. This important milestone can happen at any time between 9 and 14 months, but most parents expect it to happen around 11 months.
Because children walk at different times, there is no “right” time to start keeping track. It can be helpful to choose a prompt that your child likes. It could be a favourite stuffed animal, a significant item, or even a song that your child loves. Then, every time your child interacts with the item, you can log it in your book as a way to count down to the big day.
