Month 4 Development
At the 4 month mark there are big shifts happening. New skills are emerging, and big changes are happening in the brain:
There is a huge burst in cognitive awareness and increase in motor development
Babies are learning to roll over, back to front, and front to back
Depth perception is evolving: they are learning to grasp things with their hands and to bring things to their mouth.
Babies are pushing up on their elbows, holding their head up in tummy time, kicking and pushing their feet
They start babbling, laughing and cooing
They are Little Explorers, using their hands to explore toys
