If a child has not started learning to walk before the age of 1, he should start within the next six months. In fact, practicing walking will be his main task in motor development this year. Even if he has started walking now, it may take 1 to 2 months to stand up without helping himself and then walk skillfully. Don't expect him to stand up like an adult, though. The method used by a child may be to put his hands on the floor, straighten his arms, and then pull his legs under him to support his butt. Finally, he will straighten his legs, straighten his waist, and then stand up. If the child can't walk when he is 18 months old, you have to take him to see a doctor.
At first, he walked swaying. He would not take big steps forward, but spread his legs very wide, his feet outside, and his body would sway as he walked. At first he walked carefully and slowly, but soon he would speed up. Maybe you will soon trot behind him before you can catch up with him.
Of course, children will inevitably fall during the toddler. For a long time, walking on uneven grounds has been a challenge for children. At the beginning, even if there are slightly uneven areas on the ground, such as a small fold on the carpet or a small slope on the ground, it can easily trip him. In a few more months, he will be able to go up and down the stairs or not fall when turning.
In addition, he does not often use his hands to assist when he learns to walk. Although he learned to balance his body with his arms (bent his arms slightly and lift them to a height of the same height as his shoulders), it was still impossible for him to take a toy, play with or pick up a toy while walking. However, after learning to walk for 2 to 3 months, he can completely control his pace. Not only can he squat down and pick up the toy and walk through the room with it, he can also push and pull the toy while walking, walking sideways or backwards, or even throwing things while walking.
Starting from taking the first step, the child's walking method will become more mature after about 6 months. His feet gradually gathered together as he walked, and his pace became smoother. With your help, he can even go up and down the stairs. However, if he was allowed to go up and down the stairs by himself, he might climb up and down. Not long after, he would start trying to run a few small steps forward, although the movement was a little stiff. However, if he really learns to run, he may have to wait until the next year. When you are close to 2 years old, your child can move freely. Think about it, he could hardly walk a year ago!
