…They just might hand you this one – GUIDE & GROW: BABY’S 1st YEAR!
Ok, we all know babies don’t hand you a manual when they enter this world.
However, if you are looking for an easy-to-reference monthly guide with a thorough list of milestones and development, as well as activities and recommendations to support development in 9 areas during baby’s first year, then this book is for you.
Parents have expressed appreciation for the reader friendly format of this book as a resource throughout their baby’s first year – referencing and noting their little ones monthly development and milestones; and writing questions, notes, or memorable moments on the notes page in each chapter that can serve as notes to refer to when at appointments with your pediatrician or health care provider.
It is important to note that there is a wide range within typical development when looking at milestones, with each child developing at a unique and individual rate. With this book you can easily highlight, check off, or note the date milestones were achieved. Although chapters are organized monthly, it’s typical for a baby to meet the majority of skills in their current age month, but also be catching up on a few from the previous month, and jump ahead to a few of the next month’s skills.
Being aware of where your baby is in their development and what the next steps are will help guide you best in your play and interactions with your baby.
Learn about your baby’s development and celebrate milestones in 9 key areas.
