All parents are watching the development with affectionyour baby. And sometimes, not only with emotion, but also with anxiety - is everything all right? Suddenly the child's development is not going as it should? It was for such troublesome popes and mothers that this article was written. 
Psychomotor skills
The first thing that doctors pay attention to whenwant to assess the overall condition of the child - this is precisely the psychophysical development of the baby. Yes, and parents do not interfere with knowing the basic norms in order to sound the alarm in time. But remember, these data are very average and it is unacceptable to draw any conclusions without consulting a doctor.
- Walking
At the age of 11 months, most children dotheir first steps. Although this is a very conditional time frame, as some babies by this age are already quite confident, and some are still afraid to let go of my mother or father's finger. All this - variations of the norm and fears should not be called. But even if the child does not go by himself, the parents should closely monitor him - the children at this age are extremely mobile and curious. They will not miss the opportunity to check whether this chair will look good on the couch, what will happen if you pull the edge of the tablecloth and whether you can move along with the bench. That is why children of this age so often become patients of trauma centers.
- Fine motor skills
The development of fine motor skills in 11months is completecourse - the child is already able to pick up fairly small objects, using the thumb and forefinger. Curious kids try to pick off part of the rattle or deprive your beloved bear eyes - be careful, they often succeed. And you know that a child at this age absolutely without exception draws in the mouth.
- Nutritional behavior of crumbs
At the age of eleven months, ideally the childstill have to be on breastfeeding or get milk formula. In addition, the child's diet should already have at least three full-fledged complementary foods - otherwise there is a risk of lagging behind in the set of body weight. At 11 months old the child is already trying to spoon and drink from the cup. Of course, the spoon should be a nursery that is comfortable to hold in your hand. And as a cup parents should buy a drink - so the child will be much more convenient. And in the event that a child is eating a milk formula, it's time to wean him from the bottle, pouring the mixture into the drinker.
- Hygienic skills
At 11 months old, the child already knows very well thatsoap, why you need a comb and, in general, that cleanliness is good. In addition, just at this age it is necessary to teach the child to brush his teeth. Just do not skimp on toothpaste and brush - they need to be quality. Of course, at first you can not do without your help, but very soon the little one will learn to hold a comb in his hands and understand that dirty handles should be washed or at least shaken. Indicators of physical development:
- The kid is trying to go in a certain direction.
- The child easily climbs on low objects.
- Kroha is sitting very confidently.
- The child is trying to use a spoon.
- The child easily grabs small items.
- The child is familiar with basic hygiene skills.
Cognitive development of the child
As your child grows,his interest in the world around him increases. First, the development of the child does not stand still and he begins to understand much more, and secondly, the boundaries of the child's external world are constantly expanding, not limited, as before, to a crib and stroller.
- Interest in the world around us
The child of 11 months closely follows allunknown to him objects and phenomena - whether it is an airplane in the sky, a butterfly on a flower or a fire engine. That is why walking with a baby is just necessary for its harmonious development. But do not lose vigilance - the child is extremely impressed, and therefore very easily frightened - the signal of transport, a roll of thunder, a strong wind. Try to protect the child from shocks, and if this does not succeed, immediately calm the baby.
- Orientation in space
At 11 months the development of the child is progressingso that the little one begins to orient in space. Of course, the road from the playground to the house he still does not find, but from the bathroom to the kitchen - no problem. In addition, the crumb begins to actively explore the apartment - cabinets, chests of drawers, drawers - nothing escapes the attention of the crumbs. Incidentally, it was at this age that many parents at least once lost a child ... in their own apartment. Then under the bed the prankster will hide, or even fall into the closet at all.
- Subject actions
The eleven-month-old does not only scattertoys, but also begins to try to put them together in one place. He begins to think up options for misuse of various items - for example, he will turn the box into his shelter, and the upturned chair - into the toy store. And the child's games themselves become different, more conscious. For example, a child rolls the ball in the right direction, can roll a doll in a stroller or rock it on his hands, imitating his mother. Find a lost toy for a child is no longer a problem - he methodically explores all the corners of the apartment, although more often than not, he recalls quite often where he played with this toy for the last time. Indicators of cognitive development
- The child consciously plays with toys.
- The kid puts one object in the other and takes it out.
- The child throws things and tries to fold them back.
- The crumb shows interest in unfamiliar phenomena and objects.
Socio-emotional development

- Acquaintance with society
At about 11 months the child beginssocialize in society. First, the kid stops fearing strangers, looks at them with interest and responds to the appeal to him. Although, of course, very much depends on the nature of the particular child - some of them, when they see a stranger, hide behind their mother and at five.
- Emotions
Active development affects emotionalside - until recently the baby expressed emotions only with laughter or crying. Now parents can observe a whole gamut - from surprise to irritation. By the way, about the parents - the child starts to show more and more actively his location to them. It is very important for the child to approve of his loved ones - parents should often praise him.
- Acquaintance with the body
As the development of the child progresses,there is a conscious interest in your body - ears, nose, heels, genitals. Very many parents are frightened of such interest in the genitals and begin to pull the child. However, this is a gross error, since you let the child understand that the sex organs are shameful and forbidden. Do not pay any attention and very soon the baby, having carefully studied everything that interests him, will give the genitals exactly as long as, for example, the ear. Indicators of social development
- The child can quite find an independent occupation. Of course, not for long.
- The child closely observes the behavior of adults, copies it.
- Kroha reacts to the appeal to him, allocates pleasant adults.
- The kid is exploring his body.
Speech development of the child
At this age, your baby startsactive speech development. Remember that. that in many ways it depends on you - try to talk as often as possible with the child, read him books. All this contributes to the completion of the vocabulary of the baby - both passive and active.
- Sound Proof
Until quite recently the child only babbled, in histhe vocabulary was only a few syllables. Now there are many new sounds, and the old ones are becoming more clear. Appear the first monosyllabic words - "ba", "ma", "on". True, the child's speech development is so individual that sometimes you are amazed. There are children who in 11 months with might and main use two-syllable words, and these words they have a lot in stock. Other kids can also communicate in one and a half year only with separate sounds and gestures. As you can see, the development of a child of 1 month is in full swing. But if suddenly the development of your child does not coincide with the above standards, do not panic - every child is individual. Of course, it is very, very difficult to suppress the parental alarm, but panic is by far not the best assistant. Moreover, in most cases, there are no grounds for alarm, either you just do not notice something, or your child is just a little different from other children. But the situation can not be allowed to go by itself either. If you are alerted, ask for help from your pediatrician. He will examine the child and confirm or deny your fears. And, if necessary, send your child for consultation to a narrow specialist - neuropathologist or psychologist. We advise you to read:
