Observe A Baby At Any:

Observe A Baby At Any Parents and toddlers are welcome at all times. Having a baby to look after does not exclude die mother or dad from helping. We ask for babies to be brought in so our children can observe diem at play, and play with them or watch them being given a badi or feed. During a project to highlight equal opportunities for girls and boys a dad changed his month-old baby's nappy. Even pets play their part. They too are brought in to show off teedi, behaviour (good or disruptive!), paws, coats and the like.

CHILDBIRTH is the process by which a baby is expelled from the uterus, or womb, through the vagina to the outside world. Normally, a baby is born about 38 weeks (266 days) after it is conceived. In some cases, however, the baby may be born after only 26 weeks, and in others it may taJce as long as 41 weeks. Generally, if a baby is born before 35 weeks after conception, it is considered to be premature.


1. Observe a baby at any age between birth and two years of age. These observations should be objective—i.e., describe the child's behavior; do not label it. They should be recorded immediately and accurately. Apart from these mother's help he took off both his shoes. When she attempted to help him with his socks he said, "No, no." He enjoyed his bath. When his mother pulled the stopper out, he replaced it. When she insisted on letting out the water, he put his foot over the drain.
