At 9–12 months, your baby is becoming their own little person — communicating, exploring and testing the boundaries of their world. This course helps you understand the leaps happening beneath the surface and gives you the tools to support every one of them.
What This Course Covers
Five areas of your baby's development — each explained in the context of what's happening at 9–12 months, with practical activities you can try today.
Seeing & Looking
Object permanence fully established, visual perception through books and outings, eye-hand coordination and interpreting the world
Hearing & Talking
First words, jargon, responding to simple requests, back-and-forth communication and understanding gestures and tone
Touching & Holding
Refined pincer grip, pointing and poking, hand and finger manipulation, letting go with control and visual spatial skills
Motor Development
Sitting to crawling transitions, pulling up to stand, cruising along furniture and the first steps toward independent walking
Movement
Vestibular development, postural control and balance, and how different movement experiences shape your baby's growing body
