Development of the baby from 4 to 6
months
Four months old
Physical development
•
When he lies down on his tummy, he can lift his head and chest
using his forearms to carry the weight of his body.
• He can roll over.
• He can remain sitting, holding
his head steady for a few
minutes, if someone helps him to sit up.
• He pulls on his clothes when he plays.
• He will play with his rattle for a long time but he cannot pick it
up if he drops it
• He tries to touch his toes with his
hands when he lies on his
back
• He picks up things and puts them in his mouth. Now your baby
is able to pick things up and hold them even if he fails at his first
attempt. He is able to grasp things firmly.
When he holds
something in his hand he will check it briefly and then put it in his
mouth.
Social-‐emotional development
• The baby starts to laugh out loud when you play with him. He is
attracted by colors and movement. He
may smile at himself in the
mirror. He may respond to the people around him, according to
how comfortable he feels with each person.
He may feel happy
and calm down when he hears the Holy Qur’aan.
• The baby starts to play by himself. He can play with his hands
and feet for a few minutes and you will realize that your baby has
begun to entertain himself.
