Detailed explanation-1: -Most babies start walking independently within 2-3 months of learning to stand up by themselves. But there are other signs, and there is no single developmental timeline that all babies follow.
Detailed explanation-2: -Give them lots of opportunities to play in all fours/kneel at low objects. Put toys up on higher surfaces to encourage pulling up from all fours/encourage crawling to higher surfaces in games. Get them to pull up from your lap/low stool onto you/the couch, etc.
Detailed explanation-3: -Do babies have to sit up before they crawl? Once again, the answer is no. Babies can begin belly-crawling before they have achieved this milestone.
Detailed explanation-4: -Babies usually start walking sometime between about 10 and 18 months old. Before walking, babies will usually have been crawling (between 7 and 12 months) and pulling themselves up to stand (usually between ages 9 and 12 months).
