| Babies develop object permanence between
6 and 9 months. This means your baby can remember an image of something
out of her sight. This is the start of abstract thought. It is the
type of thought is used in pretend play. It is also used to understand
symbols in reading. |
Play a simple hide and seek game. Hide yourself
behind a piece of furniture. Let part of you show. Say, Where
am I?...Here I am! Soon your baby will come to look
for you. |
