Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children3 years agoA. Keep reading to your child. Name objects in the book or around the house as you go about your daily tasks. Play simple games with him like pee-ka-boo or hide and seek. Since he would have started to crawl, childproof your home to ensure it is safe for him to move about. Get him toys, but also allow him to play with pots and pans and wooden spoons or whatever else takes his fancy, as long as it is safe. Encourage him to explore. This is also the time to begin setting limits, although gently. Start off by saying ‘No’ to unacceptable behavior while rewarding good behavior.

Your baby doesn’t babble to imitate a conversation.
He doesn’t show excitement to see someone familiar.
He isn’t anxious when you (or his regular caregiver) is not around.
He is not curious about new things.
It is important to remember that these milestones are meant to serve as broad guidelines. All babies grow at different rates, and it is perfectly normal to show marginally delayed development in certain areas.
