At the birth all the babies are dependent on their parents however they do learn and explore such as when new born baby is awake the look around by moving their heads, watch and begin to recognise their carer or parents . At this age of birth to 18 months babies grow and develop with great speed. Three months old baby will be able to kick their leg and stretch the arms, can lift their head up when lying also the babies can turn side to side this we can define as gross motor skills. By using fine motor skills the babies can hold a small toy for a short period of time also the try to grab your finger and play. They also react on the sounds they hear and begin to move their head towards the things which makes voice. Six months old babies develop more and do use more gross motor skills such as they may try to roll over from back to from, may hold up hands to be picked up and they may also be able to sit without support for a short period of time. In fine motor skills they can pass to toys from one hand to another and has learned to drop the things. Nine months old baby plays a major part in gross motor skills because in here they can start learn to crawl, when sitting can turn sides to reach the toys. Furthermore, they can use fingers to point at things. With 12 months old babies gross motor skills can be that they can stand alone, can start walking but will tend to fall or sit suddenly or also can walk few steps if someone is holding them.
