Practical-25 : Planning stimulation activities and material for infants (7-12 months)

Introduction:

During the first two years of life, children experience the world in a more complete way than children of any other age. The brain takes in the external world through its system of sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. This means that infant social, emotional, cognitive, physical and language development are stimulated during multisensory experiences. Infants and toddlers need the opportunity to participate in a world filled with stimulating sights, sounds and people.

Children of different ages have different needs. These needs are based on each child’s stage of growth and development. Remember that two children of the same age can be similar in some ways but different in other ways. Try to understand the unique aspects of each child. This helps children feel good about themselves. This will also help you to plan activities that are developmentally appropriate for each child.
