Your little one's development stages, birth to 3 years
Seven development stages from birth to three years. Each explains what usually appears, how to support it and when to be watchful.
0-3 months: meeting the world through faces and voices
Reflexes turn into intentional movement, and the first social smile appears.
3-6 months: rolling, reaching and laughing
Head control is solid, hands discover toys, and the first loud laugh fills the house.
6-9 months: sitting, crawling and almost-words
The world changes once a baby can sit alone and move. Babble starts to sound like words.
9-12 months: standing, pointing and "mama"
Approaching the first birthday: first steps are being rehearsed, and the index finger becomes a communication tool.
12-18 months: walking, words and a will of their own
The toddler emerges: walking alone, naming things, and starting to say "no".
18-24 months: two words, running and pretend play
The vocabulary explosion begins. Two-word sentences and pretend play mark a leap in thinking.
24-36 months: sentences, friends and "why?"
The two-year-old becomes a talker, a runner and a small thinker, with emotions still learning to be managed.
