As your baby rounds out her first year (where does the time go?
Her little mind is moving at warp speed, trying to figure out the world around her.
What skills is your child developing at 11 months?
And if youre ever concerned about your babys development, check in with your pediatrician for guidance.
The following activities are great ways to play with your baby at 11 months.
For example, you might say Wheres the dog?
Though she may not respond, give her the opportunity.
If she succeeds, provide plenty of positive reinforcement.
And if she doesn’t respond, answer for her: Oh, look!
Heres the puppy… woof woof!
or Wow, look, heres a blue car!
To help baby master this important language and cognitive skill, give her plenty of spoken requests.
Through these descriptive requests, your baby will learn more about language, like colors and even prepositions.
Build a farm
If you have age-appropriate animal figurines, nows a good time to introduce them.
One by one, point out each animal by name.
Then, ask baby what sound that animal makes.
If she answers correctly, provide plenty of praise.
If not, say the animals name and the sound it makes.
For example, you might say This is a cow.
Let your baby dig around and explore.
Watch as she pulls socks in and out and begins to make observations about color and size.
Like peekaboo, this game further develops babys sense of object permanence.
