Your Baby Is 24 Weeks Old!
Handy baby
Baby’s motor skills are rapidly developing. If a toy is within her reach, she’ll rake it toward her, even if she can’t actually grab it yet. She might also experiment by moving toys between her hands — for baby, transferring objects from one hand to the other is like performing a magic trick.
[ tip ] With the AAP supporting a ban on mobile walkers because of their high injury rate, a safer option is a stationary walker like the ExerSaucer. It satisfies baby’s curiosity while it builds her standing skills.
