Child development : what are the things that your child start doing when he is around 12 months?  Curious and adventurous Around 12 months, children are very curious about the world around them and want to explore their environment. Even if your toddler really has an adventurous spirit, he needs to know that you are not far away. Your presence gives him the feeling of security he needs to explore. Since your child may still be living with so-called separation anxiety, he is afraid of not seeing you again when you leave. That's why he does not want to lose sight of you.

Twins development For a long time, the twins development has been studied by comparing it with that of other children. Yet being born to a twin brother or sister can influence their unique psychological development. Can we develop in the same way when we are a “real” twin when we are biologically unique? For a long time, the scientific community avoided the question, focusing more on the similarities that twins exhibited. Therefore, the conclusion was rather unfavorable that twins, unlike single children, developed language, abstraction and other cognitive abilities with systematic delay.This is a mistake: we know today that twins have a development of their own and that it is t, therefore, possible to model it on that of unique children. Indeed, they go through some additional stages, which will allow them to develop their personality and eventually lead them to autonomy. The course of empowerment of the twins actually involves three phases: the fusional stage, in which the twin...

When you become a parent, you receive dozens and dozens of recommendations about caring for your baby. Between the books and the advice of our loved ones, it is sometimes difficult to navigate. Here are ten things you should avoid. pixabay   1. Use cotton swabs It is strongly discouraged to use cotton swabs to clean baby's ears. By introducing the cotton swab too deeply, you can damage the eardrum. In addition, you may push earwax into the ear canal and create a plug. Use a damp washcloth instead, and gently wipe the ear. 2. Pillows, blankets, bumper and soft toys in the cradle To avoid any risk of asphyxiation, it is recommended to put nothing in the crib. The items listed earlier may wrap your baby's face as he sleeps, and he may choke on it. Before a certain age, children do not have the reflex or the strength to turn around if an object prevents them from breathing. pixabay 3. The sunscreen before 6 months Due to the fragility of baby's skin, th...

Is your child very shy? does He refuse the invitations to go play at the neighbors? In short, his shyness is detrimental to his development. If your child is in a similar situation, it is time to take action to help him overcome his blockages. 1- Lots of love and patience The love you bring to your child is unconditional: show him. Be patient and encourage him to open up to others. Thanks to your support and your love, you will succeed, little by little, to bring it out of its shell.

Baby communication Long before he can speak, your baby tries to communicate his needs, desires and emotions with signals.  Babies learn to communicate in different ways before they know how to talk. Thus, in a few months, your baby emits different types of crying, cooing and facial expressions to see your reaction and that of those around him. He soon learns to exploit the cries and movements that bring him the satisfaction he seeks. Knowing that he can get what he wants help to gain greater esteem of him and feeds his desire to go further, to discover things. When your baby makes sounds, repeat them after him and add in some of your own. Meeting the needs of your child does not spoil him. The need for human contacts is innate. By fulfilling your baby's needs, you get to know him better and give him the opportunity to get to know you better; and above all, you tell him he can count on you. Learn ... to understand each other! Learning to "read" your baby...
