Module- 5 & 6 Planning, Implementing and Evaluation of Stimulation Programme
for Infants (birth – 6 months)

Execution of stimulation activities for infants (birth – 6 months) in vision

Introduction: The sense of vision develops rapidly during the first six months of life. Stimulation of the sense of sight is very important for infants. During the first month, most babies learn to focus on objects at a distance of 8-10 inches. At one month of age, babies are usually able to follow objects with their eyes. This new skill will get progressively better in the coming months. Between four and six months most babies gradually become able to focus on objects at any distance. They will also follow any moving object that catches their attention.

Aim: To execute the stimulation activities for infants in sense of vision.

Objectives:

1. To execute the stimulation program for infants in sense of vision.
