The Magic of Everyday Moments: Six to Nine Months

The booklets in this series, Magic of Everyday Moments, are not intended to be general guides to everything that is happening at each specific age. Instead, they focus on how, through interactions with your baby during everyday moments, you can support your baby's social, emotional and intellectual development. In fact, these everyday moments are rich opportunities to encourage your child’s development by building her self-confidence; curiosity; social skills; self-control and communication skills. Most of all you build her desire to learn about her world. These are linked with Permission from Zero to Three- www.zerotothree.org
