Baby Steps, Second Edition: A Guide to Your Childs Social, Physical, Mental and Emotional Development in the First Two Years (Owl Book) by Claire Kopp

When Baby Steps was first published in 1993, it was named one of the 10 Best Parenting Books by Child magazine. Now, this popular guide to babys first two years has been completely revised to incorporate the latest research on the young childs developing brain and behavior, including brand-new material on temperament, language, and memory. Baby Steps pinpoints the important events in an infants life, examining them month by month for the first year, and in three-month intervals during the second year. Beginning with a miniguide to early development, the book goes on to a cover such important subjects as sleep, crying, colic, motor development, social play, and toilet training. Developmental hints and alerts throughout the book provide parents with a clear understanding of the full range of normal behaviors for each phase, helping to allay common anxieties. An accessible, concrete guide to infant and toddler behavior, Baby Steps takes much of the guesswork out of parenting.
