| Child's Age | Mastered Skills (most kids can do) | Emerging Skills (half of kids can do) | Advanced Skills (a few kids can do) |
| 1 month | Lifts head when lying on tummy Responds to sound Stares at faces | Follows objects briefly with eyes Vocalizes: oohs and aahs Can see black-and-white patterns | Smiles, laughs Holds head at 45-degree angle |
| 2 months | Vocalizes: gurgles and coos Follows objects across field of vision Notices his hands Holds head up for short periods | Smiles, laughs Holds head at 45-degree angle Makes smoother movements | Holds head steady Can bear weight on legs Lifts head and shoulders when lying on tummy (mini-pushup) |
| 3 months | Recognizes your face and scent Holds head steady Visually tracks moving objects | Squeals, gurgles, coos Blows bubbles Recognizes your voice Does mini-pushup | Rolls over, from tummy to back Turns toward loud sounds Can bring hands together, bats at toys |
So far she can do all the "Mastered Skills", all the "Emerging Skills", and she can do all the "Advanced Skills" besides rolling over. I hope that's not a bad thing. She just loves to be on her tummy. She moves a lot when she is on her tummy, but I don't know how to teach her to roll over. I heard it's much harder to roll over from your back to tummy so I don't really know what to do. I just hope sometime soon she will be able to do it. I know some babies take a little more time than others so I know I shouldn't worry. I'm just so excited for her to develop all these skills. It's truly amazing how fast she learns and develops. Geeze before I know it she'll be crawling and walking!!
And then she'll be READING!!! haha just thought this was a cute picture. my growing little girl.
