Detailed explanation-1: -Within the first year of life, your baby will develop critical motor skills that help them make small movements, hold up their head, sit up-right, crawl and eventually walk. As a caregiver, there are many things you can do to encourage the development of bones and muscles to help them reach these milestones.
Detailed explanation-2: -Motor skills are important in early childhood development. Mastery of many motor skills is important for normal daily functions. The five basic motor skills are sitting, standing, walking, running, and jumping.
Detailed explanation-3: -Even in their first 2 months, babies will kick their legs and wave their arms around. At 6 to 8 months old, your baby should be able to roll, reach and sit independently (if only briefly). Between 12 and 18 months, most babies are walking.
Detailed explanation-4: -Four principles are drawn from approximately 100 years of research in the area of motor development. The principles are (1) children are not miniature adults, (2) boys and girls (children) are more alike than different, (3) good things are earned, and (4) no body (nobody) is perfect.
