INFANT GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT ONE MONTH

GROSS MOTOR: ability to use large muscle groups to maintain balance/posture or locomotion Head control major task to obtain in prone/upright position In prone position, can turn head to side side to side head movement (most obvious initial head movements); lift head momentarily (occasionally) when prone Head control is judged by head lag presence or absence Determination of head lag done by pulling infant up by arms from supine to sitting position Infant back completely rounded in sitting position, head falling forward when prone can turn head side to side and lift head momentarily

FINE MOTOR able to hold objects with a tightly clenched fist (a primitive grasp reflex)

COGNITIVE Infant learns about the world through repetitive use of involuntary reflexes.-Rooting-Sucking-Crying when an infant is hungry, he or she will cry, to signal a need. The caregiver will recognize that the infant is crying because he or she is hungry, and will provide the nourishment. Once the Infant is provided with food, he or she will stop crying because the need was met.

LANGUAGE Demanding cries, grunting, gurgling, and cooing sounds. Screams and cries to let you know if they are hungry, uncomfortable or unhappy Makes contented sounds when happy. As early as 1 month, may recognize the basic and distinct sounds of a language (phonemes), such as "tr" and "cl." Prefer "baby talk" and voices with high pitch. Become alert to sounds by blinking or widening eyes; may startle to be awakened by noise Will turn toward a sound to look for its source. Will quiet to their mother's voice.

http://children.webmd.com/guide/speech-and-language-development-birth-to-1-year-of-age RELATIONSHIPS: Infants quickly focus on their mothers as sources of relief and satisfaction Relationships can usually be labeled using adjectives such as warm, cold, rejecting, and hostile Any relationship may be contradictory. For example, a mom may have a warm relationship with her child as shown by hugs and kisses, but she may also yell when yelling might be needed to protect the child from harm To understand the relationship, we must understand the interactions Early interactions establish the nature of the relationship between parent and child, giving it a particular tone or style Infants emotions motivate them to either approach or withdraw from situations and to either communicate or not communicate their needs to those around them; When others respond, infants learn about social exchanges, which furthers their social development According to Erikson, trust is developed when the basic needs of feeding, clothing and comforting are met by caretakers; if these needs arent met, the infant will develop a mistrust of others However, trust development involves more than just meeting basic needs; If the caregiver consistently demonstrates nurturing behaviors such as talking, playing, smiling, dressing, and comforting, the infant will develop a strong sense of trust; if these behaviors are absent, trust development may be delayed

TEMPERAMENT Temperament is the way a child interacts with the surrounding environment and provides clues to why infants behave in the ways they do.

Colic: also known as infant irritability is one of the most common health problems seen in infants younger than 3 months of age. The term describes recurrent episodes of unexplained crying and irritability to be consoled. The colicky episode is characterized by: Loud, persistent crying and flexing of the hips towards the abdomen are results of paroxysmal abdominal cramping Colic is present if crying occurs during the first 3 months of life If it lasts longer than 3 hours per day If it occurs more than 3 days in 1 week and continues for at least 3 weeks Colic usually resolves spontaneously

BEHAVIOR make eye contact Cry to communicate Respond to parents smiles and voices The smile is one of the first signs of emotion in a baby; the female voice elicits a brief, real smile by three weeks. J Infants enjoy being touched, held, and cooed and smiled at. As early at the first month, the infant will begin to experiment with making faces. Infant will enjoy watching mothers face and may even mimic some of her gestures. (stick out your tongue) May experience colic Non-nuitrive sucking is used as a source of pleasure and satisfaction, which provides the infant the opportunity to learn selfgratification. Primitive reflexes facilitate feeding Sleep: experience more REM sleep than at any other time in life. o Awake: 7.5hrs o Day Sleep: 6.75hrs o Night Sleep: 8.75hrs

EMOTIONS One of the first signs of emotions is a baby's smile, which most parents immediately interpret as happiness, yet newborns' smiles don't indicate pleasure in the sense that the smiles of older infants do. By the 3rd week, the human female voice elicits a real brief smile and by 6th week the beginnings of true social smile appears, especially in response to human face.

TWO MONTHS GROSS MOTOR: "The ability to use large muscle groups to maintain balance and postural control or locomotion." Partial head lag, in sitting position. Infant can hold head erect, with minimal head bobbing while sitting. Holds head up and supports weight on forearms when prone. Rolls from abdomen to back. Tonic neck and Moro reflexes disappearing.

FINE MOTOR: Fine motor development is the use of hands and fingers in the prehension or grasp of an object. It occurs during the first 2-3 months as a reflux and then gradually becomes voluntary. Infant demonstrates a desire to grasp an object but they grasp it more with the eyes than the hands. Follows objects pass midline Holds hands open Regards own hands and fingers when held in front of face Places hand in mouth Briefly reaches at a dangling object

COGNITIVE: Piagets Sensorimotor Period: Stage 2 (1-4 mos) Primary Circular Reactions relates sensation and schema self-exploration: learn about their bodies becomes active observer, learns involuntary actions will elicit response, learns to repeat involuntary actions involving their bodies (ex: sucking reflex done voluntarily, without bottle) voluntary actions motivated by pleasure Learns to develop hand-eye coordination, looks at and reaches for immediate environment begins to imitate gestures and sounds of caregiver

You tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HADrEdgCafI by Dr. Mary Ann LoFrumento

LANGUAGE: Vygotsky's first stage of language development of preintellectual Speech Cooing appears Makes single vowel sounds ( ah,eh,uh) Has developed a social smile to elicit pleasurable stimuli from others ( attention from others) Vocalizes to familiar faces

http://www.asha.org/public/speech/development/01.htm

RELATIONSHIPS TEMPERAMENT A child's temperament is considered to be a combination of genetics and caregivers' personalities. Personality types o Easy o Difficult o Slow-to-warm-up Colic (infant irritability) can be seen in infants 3 months or younger o recurrent episodes of unexplained crying without the ability of being consoled o onset is at 1-2 wks and resolves spontaneously at around 16 wks o episode consists of loud, persistent crying and flexing of the hips towards the abdomen o Paroxysmal abdominal cramping: present if crying during first 3 months of life, longer than 3 hrs per day, occurs more than 3 times per wk, and continues for at least 3 wks. o Feed infant slowly, burp freq, upright position during feeding. o if breastfeeding, avoid eating foods that give gas o swaddle infant, take in care ride, put in swing for @ least 20 min, walk or rock infant (apply gentle pressure to abdomen) o massage back, background or white noise, reduce stimuli, place warm towel on abdomen o DO NOT shake infant

BEHAVIOR EMOTIONS THREE MONTHS GROSS MOTOR: -can push the head up while on their stomach 45-90 degrees -upright positions such as standing and sitting with minimal head lag -can support weight on forearms when prone -rolls from abdomen to back -tonic neck and Moro reflexes dissappear -although 3 month olds like to show off like they still require support -can hold things in their hands

FINE MOTOR hold hands open look at fingers when held in front of face places fingers in the mouth follow objects past midline briefly reach at a dangling object

COGNITIVE Use of reflexes gradually replaced by voluntary activity Recognition of causality occurring when repetition of events causes one stimulus to produce consistent response Beginning notion of temporal space of time as infant realizes progression of orderly sequence of events Beginning separation of self from others Learns from type of interaction between objects or individual rather than from object itself Engages in activity for pleasure of the activity more than for its results.

Hockenberry, M. J., & Wilson, D. (2007). Wong\'s nursing care of infants and children. (8th ed.). St. Louis, MO: Mosby, Inc.

LANGUAGE smiles when she can hear your voice smiles at other people squealing and laughing spontaneously Between 3 4 months, baby is gurgling, cooing and babbling constantly To encourage communication: o Mom is babys favourite toy, so sing, talk, babble, and copy the babys sounds o be enthusiastic when baby smiles at or sends some burbling your way if baby gets a good response, they will want to do it again. o Explain what you are doing and name objects that baby can see. o Read to baby, they will begin to appreciate the value of speech before baby can understand what is being said o Once baby starts talking, encourage conversations by taking turns chatting o don't interrupt or look away when baby is talking o show baby interest in what she has to say. o Parents naturally raise the pitch and volume of voice when talking to baby, varying the tone and volume to avoid always conversing with baby in baby talk. o If baby isnt in the mood to chat, just hold baby and take the opportunity to show baby that silence is ok

RELATIONSHIPS Infants interact with their environments and begin to structure their own relationships according to their individual temperaments. The interactions occurring among family members; parent to parent, parent to siblings, sibling tosiblingproduce a ripple effect that colors the parentc hild relationship. Thus, the nature of the relationships between parents and their children emerges from the temperament and characteristics of each and from the interactions that occur among them.

TEMPERAMENT: can fall into 3 types Easy, characterized by regularity of bodily functions, low or moderate intensity of reactions, and acceptance of, rather than withdrawal from new situations. Difficult, characterized by irregularity in bodily functions, intense reactions, and withdrawal from new stimuli. Slow to warm up, characterized by a low intensity of reactions, and a somewhat negative mood.

BEHAVIOR want to be entertained and become more aware of environment and curious. Still need to be held but are able to lift up head and become independent, however get frustrated and cry when they get tired.

EMOTIONS: socially influenced, value appraising processes a range of emerging emotion from happiness to anger, pleasure, distress, disgust frequent socially significant smiles still cry a lot because - starting to teeth. Need attention and entertainment to accomidate new skills such as reaching. Get tired and frustrated at times and cry. develop a sense of trust (trust of self, of others, and of the wolrd) from quality of both the relationship between the parent and child and care the infant receives. Mistrust caused by failure to learn delayed gratification, too much or too little frustration Food intake is the most important social activity for infant more advanced behavior to show emotion: crying, grasping, and etc. considerable interest in the environment o excitement when a toy is presented o refusal to be left alone, o recognition of parent, and o demonstration of pleasure by squealing. Emotion issue o stranger fear and separation anxiety---have close friends or relatives visit often.

FOUR MONTHS GROSS MOTOR straighten legs when feet touch a flat surface when on tummy, lifts head and chest off surface while looking around holds head up on own will roll over before the end of the fourth month sits with support but will topple over if left on his/her own no head lag good head control

http://www.livestrong.com/article/96416-4month-infant-development

FINE MOTOR move their arms & hands simultaneously to bat at objects and/or visual stimuli ability to move their eyes & head in a coordinated manner from side to side. Turn head left to right in response to the sound of their Mothers voice reach for objects and hold them in the middle of his/her body. grasp is reflexive, will not be able to purposefully release objects they are holding. reach with one hand. squeeze objects & hold them in a closed fist

COGNITIVE: Piagets third substage, secondary circular reaction. more aware of the surrounding environment starts to master voluntary actions. Actions start to become intentional learns by repetition starts to focus on the effects of actions, for example banging a toy over and over again just to hear the sound. search for an object that is familiar to them if it is taken out of the visual field, although if not found readily they will lose interest

LANGUAGE will start to babble, using many of the rhythms and characteristics of native language may sound like gibberish, but can disertain rise and drop in voice as if making a statement or asking a question Encourage baby by talking throughout the day When baby says a recognizable syllable, repeat it back and then say some simple words that contain that sound. Ex: if baby's sound of the day is "bah," introduce baby to "bottle," "box," and "Baa, Baa, Black Sheep." Startle upon hearing loud sounds Make "cooing" sounds Quiet or smile when spoken to recognize your voice Cry differently for different needs

http://www.healthychildren.org

TEMPERAMENT: the way a child interacts with the surrounding environment. Temperamental characteristics are categorized by nine attributes: o Activity-intensity and frequency of physical activity o Rhythmicity-regularity of repetitive physiological functions o Approach-withdrawl-initial reaction to a given stimulus o Adaptability-ease or difficulty with which the child reacts or adapts to a given stimulus o Intensity of response-degree of energy used by the child to react to the stimulus o Threshold of responsiveness-amount of stimulation needed to evoke a childs response o Mood-amount of happiness versus unhappiness or pleasant and friendly behavior versus unpleasant and unfriendly exhibited in various situations o Distractibility-effectiveness of the stimulus to alter the direction of the ongoing behavior o Attention span and persistence-length of time the child pursues an activity and the continuation of an activity despite the obstacles

3 distinct personality types Easy Easygoing and adapts to stimuli Has an overall positive mood likes to be around people Sleeps and eats well Has regular and predictable behaviors

Difficult Adapts slowly to stimuli Has an overall negative mood Requires a structured environment Likes people but can do well alone Seems to be in constant motion Has irregular patterns of behavior

Slow-to-warm-up Adapts slowly to stimuli but is watchful Quietly withdrawls and usually moody Primarily a loner and socially shy Oversensitive and slow to mature

Primarily inactive Reacts passively to changes in routine

All of the characteristics and personality types can be beneficial to the caregivers understanding of each child enabling them to develop a more effective plan of care for the infants needs. RELATIONSHIPS They begin to develop trust as their parents and providers meet their needs, ie. feeding them when they are hungry, changing their diapers when soiled, or holding them when they cry They learn to recognize faces and voices of parents and providers.

The interactions occuring among family members, parent-parent, parent-siblings, sibling-sibling, -- produce a ripple effect that colors the parent-child relationship.

BEHAVIOR Relating to vision: infant fixates on objects watches own hands and feet

Relating to Feeding: hunger seems unsatisfied after nursing or bottle feeding associates caregiver's smell, voice, and cradling with feeding hand-to-mouth behavior quiets infant readiness for solids (semi) excellent head and trunk control

EMOTIONS FIVE MONTHS GROSS MOTOR When prone assumes symmetric position with arms extended Good head control with no head lag Holds chest and abdomen up with weight supported by hands while prone Sits with support Rolls from back to abdomen Bears weight in standing position with support

FINE MOTOR Reaches for object beyond grasp Looks from object to hand and back again Places object in mouth Uses whole hand to grasp object Plays actively with hands and feet

COGNITIVE they become more aware of the surrounding environment and mastering voluntary actions concept of play becomes evident during this period

actions are more intentional and not solely directed by pleasure infant learns through repititive actions to create interesting sights and sounds and begins to focus on the effects of the actions beginning of object permanence is evident during this substage, as an object is no longer seen as an extension of the infant but ratheras a separate intity while interacting with a familiar object, the infant will now search for the object if it is removed from the visual field but will loose interest quickly if it is not found readily found infant develops stranger anxiety when left with a new babysitter applies newly mastered skills to new experiences called coordination of secondary schema, and is able to put several events together to accomplish an end result

LANGUAGE Expressive skills vocalizes during play and pleasure -squeals -laughs aloud -cries less uses vowels and consonant sounds that resemble syllables(ma, mu, ba, ga, ah, da)

Receptive skills watches speaking mouth shifts gaze between sounds understands own name uses sound to get attention (Potts, 2012 pg. 248)

RELATIONSHIPS Trust is developed when the basic needs of feeding, clothing, and comforting are met by caretakers (if needs are not met infant will develop a mistrust of others). Quality of caregiver-infant interaction while providing care also plays a major role If caregiver consistently demonstrates nurturing behaviors suck as talking, playing, smiling, dressing, and comforting, the infant will develop a strong sense of trust (If behaviors are absent, trust development may be delayed) Caregiver and infant must learn together ways to achieve satisfaction and decrease frustration during daily routines Should infant be in alternative child care situation, trust development is continued by the heath care provider (things to inform health care provider pg. 234) If infants needs are met in a consistent manner by the caregiver or alternative child care provider, trust in self as well as trust in others and the surrounding environment will develop (if not infant will eventually develop a sense of mistrust)

TEMPERAMENT 3 categories Easy Difficult Slow to warm up

BEHAVIOR Related to visual problems : : : : does not reach for objects by 5 months of age Related to hearing problems lack of startle reflex, failure to awaken to loud noises and fails to turn head toward sound by 6 months of age Related to feeding ready for solids, excellent head and trunk control, reaches for objects and loss of extrusion reflex of tongue Related to sleep awake: between 9 and 9.75 hours; day sleep: 3.25-4.5 hours; night sleep: 10.5-11 hours

Potts 2007, pp. 212, 213, 217, 223

EMOTIONS Pediatrician, Psychologist, and author Daniel Siegel states, Emotions represent dynamic processes created within the socially influenced , value appraising processes of the brain Emotions motivate infants to approach or withdraw from situations Emotions are referred to as the Language of infancy Emotions are heavily influenced by culture. children from the US expressed anger more openly than children from other cultures Around this time infants develop the emotions of delight, wariness, and anger. They have more specific responses to specific stimulation- instead of just positive and negative emotions, positive turns into joy and interest, while negative morphs into fear, disgust, and anger

(Fiore, 2011, pp 119-121)

Six Months
GROSS MOTOR when prone can lift chest and upper abdomen bearing weight on hands; balance heads can turn from stomach to back may be able to turn from back to stomach may use arms to push up into sitting position

FINE MOTOR can hold a bottle securely grasps feet and pulls them into their mouth readily drops any grasped item

COGNITIVE: Stage 3: Piaget Secondary Circular Reactions Infant learns to perform activities that produce reactions in their surroundings as opposed to themselves o infant enjoys repeating actions over and over (like playing peek-a-boo or mimicking sounds) Infant still uses mouth to explore objects o will pick up an object and place straight to mouth

LANGUAGE communication is through crying, smiling, and cooing. These expressions enable caregivers to determine the infants needs. the infant at this age can understand their own name, watch a speaking mouth, and use sounds to get attention expressively they can squeal, laugh, and use vowel and consonant sounds that resemble syllables

RELATIONSHIPS: The quality of the caregiver-infant interaction while providing care also plays a major role. If the caregiver consistently demonstrates nuturing behaviors such as talking, playing, smiling, dressing, and comforting, the infant will develop a strong sense of trust If the infant's needs are met in consistent manner by the caregiver , trust in self and trsut in others and the surrounding enviroment will follow playing with the infant is an important part of learning about their environment and the people around them interpersonal contact between the infant and caregiver is necessary to nurture their relationship engage in repetitive activities for play to better the infant-caregiver relationship the caregiver can o praise often o use toys that use all 5 senses

utilize developmentally appropriate toys for 6 month olds, such as jack-in-the-box, hide and seek, bath tub toys, and big, soft blocks encouraging trust by promoting nurturing behaviors is the major force behind building relationships with infants

TEMPERAMENT BEHAVIOR infant has separation anxiety when mother steps out of the room begin to explore the surroundings infant will sleep through the night begins teething and will be irritable when in pain infant starts to realize self in mirror

EMOTIONS able to distinguish emotions as their cognitive development continues experience emotions such as fear, anxiety, shyness, and pleasure start to be more specific at this age General positive and negative emotions are transformed into joy and interest, or fear, disgusts, or anger.

FINE MOTOR: EXAMPLE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C544ZAuds-s Holds objects securely and bangs them together Actively drops objects Transfers object between hands Can hold a bottle securely grasps feet and pulls to mouth Can willingly drop grasped object

COGNITIVE Finds partially hidden objects Explores with hands & mouth Struggles to get objects that are out of reach

LANGUAGE Begins to respond to "no" Responds to own name Talk along with others Babbles chains of consonants Uses two-syllable sounds (baba, dada)

RELATIONSHIP

TEMPERAMENT: Temperament is "the way a child interacts with the surrounding environment." This can be a combination of genetics of the infant, the caregiver's personality, and the pattern of social interaction between the child and the environment. There are nine attributes of temperament constructed by Thomas, Chess, and Birch. (Page 249 in Potts textbook). The knowledge of temperament can be very useful in understanding the caregiver-infant relationship. There are three defined personality types for infants: easy, difficult, and slow-to-warm-up. It is common that an infant may not fit directly into one of these three categories and may exhibit a variety of personality types.

BEHAVIOR learning how to control his environment and finding out that being in control can be fun learning to get around by a creep, scoot, roll, crawl, or combine all four movements sit unassisted and reach for and pick up toys strong enough now to hold himself up on his legs while supported ability to hold and drink from a cup, and possibly eat from a spoon vocal eagerness during meal preparation (Potts, 2012, p. 245) much more motor activity during feeding (Potts, 2010, p. 245) transfers object from hand to hand

EMOTIONS The emotions an infant feels are influenced by culture Shows fear, shyness, and anxiety Begins to understand the meaning of "no" Enjoys the presence of others Begins to show anger more Attempts to copy adult sounds. "Emotions are slowly being differentiated with increasing cognitive development" (Fiore, 2011).

COGNITIVE: "Coordination of secondary schemes", forming new kinds of behaviors (Piaget & Inhelder, 1969) Infant decides on a goal, Ex: if an object were to be hidden under a blanket, the infant will search for it. Previously learned attributes are used to carry out a desired goal. Infant uses multiple senses when carrying out tasks and in the midst of learning. They tend to: Look, feel, shake and listen to items of interest. This stage contains the first signs of intentional behavior Curiosity grows and may cause infant to rummage through cabinets, wastebaskets etc. Very short attention span, and will move between activities in a swift manner.

LANGUAGE increases vowel and consonant sounds using two-syllable sounds such as "ba-ba-ba" and "da-da-da" that will continue for the remainder of the first year (babbling) infant begins to associate words with activity and responds to simple commands ("no-no") Hear words as distinct sounds and repeat sounds they hear Start to mimic the rhythm of the way others talk to them begin to respond to their name Looks at people/pictures/items when named

To encourage language development talk with child, telling them what you're doing asking them questions, giving them time to respond reading to them.

RELATIONSHIPS: Stranger and separation of anxiety emerge approximately 8-12 months of age: the infant will develop a sense of object permanence. Separation anxiety is more likely to occur if the infant is left in a unfamiliar place or with an unfamiliar person. The stranger's approach influences the infant's reaction to the stranger. For 8-months-old infant, the ability to recognize a discrepancy occurs rapidly when the stranger and familiar caregiver are seen together. The infants will demonstrate overt distress when they are experiencing stranger and separation of anxiety. Signs of overt distress are drawing, frowning, whimpering, crying, and clinging. Infants actively seek contact with their caregivers. They happily greet their mother when she appears and exhibit separation anxiety when she departs.

NINE MONTHS GROSS MOTOR: use of large muscles in order to gain postural control and balance. able to stand with support at the end of 9 months infants will start standing alone Walk with support

FINE MOTOR: refers to use of the small muscles of the fingers and hands for the activities such as grasping objects, holding and cutting. Able to pick up objects or drink from a cup Able to grasping objects Able to use thumb and index finger in crude pincer grasp Preference for use of dominant hand now evident Able to hold a bottle with two hands Able to rakes a small object with fingers Able to rotate his wrist to turn objects self-feed small pieces of food

TEMPERAMENT: behavioral style of the infant. infant naturally reacts to situations and stimuli mood ability to calm down how active they are. differs from one child to the other personality is developing can be very social grantbroad smiles to everyone they meet or a little more shy, hiding face when well-meaning strangers try to engage may charge ahead boldly or assess the situation carefully before accepting others may be even tempered or switch their moods quite dramatically. able to play by themselves and begin to adapt to their environment.

begin to have separation anxiety difficulty sleeping alone.

COGNATIVE Applies new skills gained in months 4-8 (Coordination of secondary Schema) Can put many skills and experiences to gain a grand final result. o Example from Potts: Ex. infant is able to put blocks into a container with various shaped holes o understand simple words and commands (Potts p.235). Such as no, hello, or even carrot or cracker. Object permanence is evident and the infant will act upon it. Child will actively try and find the hidden object. Child will begin reasoning or finding the purpose. Will work and overcome obstacles. building memory . For example, the infant will remember where a toy is the last time they played with it. Or remember where, mommy or daddy usually are.

LANGUAGE increase in vowel and consonant sounds (Potts p.248). Uses two syllable sounds/words as well as talks to others (Potts p.248). begin to interact with each other with some communication. Associates words with objects and activities (Potts p.248). begin to recognize familiar sounds, words, and commands. May respond to simple commands such as no or bye. Language in infants is measured with the Denver II screening tool in which potential problems can be identified. Caregivers are encouraged to talk to infant as much as possible. Reading to infants or telling stories can stimulate language and comprehension development. Naming objects, making eye contact are other factors that can stimulate language and comprehension development

RELATIONSHIPS Consist with their caregivers, siblings, relatives, family friends and other infants constant interaction and play Remember that babies can be happily entertained by a single simple toy, and can be overwhelmed when given lots of toys all at once. Allow to get used to new toys and really explore them. Let baby take the lead in deciding how to play with a toy, even if that means sucking on it! Let baby explore safe household items that are not actually "toys." Let baby explore your hands, feet, hair, and face. Name the body parts and point out corresponding features on your baby.

Your baby might become skilled at various gestures, such as shaking his or her head no, pointing at something out of reach, or waving bye-bye. Expect your baby's babbling to take on new inflection and evolve to words such as "dada" and "mama." You might hear exclamations such as "uh-oh!" ---Chelsea--use gibberish in a conversational way

COGNITIVE (Kristen Treadwell): Piaget Sensorimotor End of stage 4: coordination of secondary schemes (8-12 mnth) able to carry out a desired goal. This requires coordination of activities that they learned accidentally in other stages. Ex: finding a toy under a blanket developing intentional behavior intentionally shaking a rattle i/o accidental gross movements of extremities

Beginning of stage 5: Tertiary Circular reactions (12 18 mnth) no longer have accidental movements (dropping toys, flinging arms, kicking), but have intentional movements (intentional dropping of a toy) Repetitions are no longer attempts at recreations of accidental movement. Intentional repetitions lead to further understanding of the world around them. Ex: dropping sippy-cup on tile makes loud noise, but dropping cup on carpet makes soft noise. Or dropping blocks from between the bars of my crib makes them land close, but throwing them between the bars of my crib makes them land far away.

If caregivers are unpredictable, inconsistenet, inadequate, or convey a sense of confusion or chaos, the child learns to view the environment with mistrust or wariness. (Potts & Mandleco, 2012, p. 168) relationships involve many aspects of development, such as playing (physical and social, talking and communicating (language), Understanding self and others (cognitive), and attachments (emotional).

To understand the relationship between parent and child, we must understand the interactions. Reciprocal interactionsinteractions that shape relationships with others Adults respond to infants, infants respond to adults, and infants can elicit a response. Emotional development occurs as the result of an infants dispositional tendencies combined with a complex interaction between growing cognitive skills and social interactions (Fiore, 2011, p. 120). In the first year of life, infants gradually develop the ability to stop or reduce the duration and intensity of emotional reactions (Fiore, 2011, p. 120). By 12 months the infant will have stranger anxiety and separation anxiety. Between 12-18 months Will develop emotion of elation and security. Features are feelings of security and well-being encourage exploration of environment.
