Stimulating Activities for Your 4-month-old Baby

By Tammy Morey

Pages:  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  

  • He will verbally imitate interaction with you through mumbling. He can also imitate you verbally, as well as get your attention and initiate interaction by making sounds with his mouth, such as clicking his tongue on the roof of his mouth.
  • He can lift himself up with his arms and may even be able to pull himself into a sitting position. Any object that is within his reach and that he can pull down will end up in his mouth.
  • He needs only one supporting arm to hold and balance himself as he reaches forward while lying on his stomach.
  • He may be able to roll from side to side or turn from his back to his side and onto his stomach.
  • His core muscles are becoming stronger, and you may notice that his arms and hands are more active. He can bend his arms and reach and voluntarily grasp objects within his reach.
  • He usually sleeps in six- to eight-hour intervals during the night.
  • He has developed into a social butterfly, gracing everyone with his laughs, broad smiles and joyful expressions. He closely observes strangers, adjusting his responses based upon his experiences with them.
  • He has established his favorite people by now and also has distinguished a favorite toy. He delightfully creates different ways to play with it.
