Learning, Play, and Your 4- to 7-Month-Old
en español: Aprendizaje, juego y su hijo de 4 a 7 meses
Medically reviewed by: Mary L. Gavin, MD
By 4 months old, your baby has learned to recognize you and familiar caregivers, focus and pay attention to things, and actively engage your attention.
Continue to foster the learning process by engaging, responding, and encouraging exploration. Practice and build on what your little one learns with age-appropriate toys and a safe environment to explore.
What Is My Baby Learning?
Your child will be drawn to colors, patterns, and shapes of different objects and toys. By reaching out for things, babies learn about touch, shape, and texture.
