Month 14 - What can the child do in the 14th month of its life?

Each toddler develops at their own pace. However, in the 14th month of its life, a child can very frequently:

• assume a vertical position, that is, get up and sit down independently;
• sit down from a standing position;
• lean down for an item that interests them;
• walk independently or with assistance;
• run (only when it walks independently and feels secure with it);
• master its behaviour and change it consciously;
• perform simple commands;
• climb down backwards from a sofa;
• climb up onto a sofa or on stairs;
• observe and mimic other children and members of its household;
• mimic simple gestures;
• say names of its favourite toys, e.g., “doll”.
