Fasten your seat belts. The roller-coaster ride of Parenting Kids is about to enter one of its most exhilarating and challenging phases. Ages one to three aren't always easy. Your child will deal with new emotions and conflicting needs for independence and dependence. Yet this is an extraordinary time for parent and child, because there is nothing to match a toddler's energy, curiosity, and unrestrained joy in her widening world. Your child will also begin acquiring the basics of a lifetime of social skills, such as table manners, greetings, polite requests and thank-you's, sharing and taking turns as the underpinnings of etiquette and good manners.Usually between a year and eighteen months, babies learn to walk independently. When she takes her first wabbly and unsupported steps, your baby becomes a toddler, literally acquiring a new perspective on her world. She will continue to acquire physical skills, growing stronger and taller and gaining increased control of her motor skills. Her boundless interest in exploration and experimentation will lead her into everything.Understanding and use of language will expand enormously. Short-term memory will mature. Problem-solving will become relatively sophisticated. She will begin to think symbolically, not needing to see something in order to imagine it, and to engage more and more often in imitative and imaginative play. She will be able to follow fairly complex verbal instructions.A toddler's growing physical and intellectual abilities set the stage for genuine learning. Your example will remain your child's most influential teacher, but as she approaches her third birthday, she will take her first steps into the world of proper behavior.
