Kicking and waving their arms while lying in their cot can lead them to discover that a kick can make a banging sound.

Babies begin to learn about conversational turn-taking from an early age; if a baby is babbling the adult waits for a pause and then talks to the baby. You will often see young babies in a bath reaching with their legs towards a floating toy and kicking. Make sure to check out the VTech Toot Toot range for incredible air, land or sea vehicles, animals and figures that interact with each other as well the brightly coloured, multi-layered Toot Toot playsets.

Through lots of exciting activities, fun music and friendly phrases, little ones will be introduced to numbers, shapes and animals. The grasping, at first, is quite clumsy but through repetition, and across time, infants become adept at grasping and develop fine motor skills.

Babies can perceive input from different sensory systems in a unified way; for instance, vision and touch are closely coordinated when using a shape sorter.

After the first year, infants adopt the ‘pincer grasp’ where they use their thumb and index finger to grasp even very tiny objects. Adults can influence an infant’s confidence about the world by encouraging and smiling at them when they approach an unfamiliar object or toy. Infants also learn about the links between sights, sounds and feel of toys when these are demonstrated by adults. Spinning gears, five piano keys, three colorful rollers, three light-up shape sorters, three light-up buttons and a telephone handset offers endless fun that will stimulate your baby’s learning and develop their motor skills.

Watch your little one take their first steps with this 2-in-1 walker and activity centre from VTech!

Once babies are either crawling or walking their mobility gives them more opportunities to explore their world.Social interaction is important for language development and turn-taking games are a fun and educational way for babies and young children to learn. The walker features textured wheels, easy grip handle and durable design giving all the support your little one needs to take their first steps. Exploration and play are closely linked in infants where, for example, discovering that a toy makes a noise leads to infants repeating the action that made the noise.
