Document Summary

Current science and theories suggest: we are genetically programmed to learn. Our early sensory and social experience trigger our genes to set in motion attention and organize our information. Infants are surrounded by lots of colors, shapes and noises- they must know what needs attention and what does not: one of their first tasks is to organize the image into a recognizable and understandable order. Birth to 2 months: loves to look at your face, eyes are uncoordinated, sees best at 9-12 inches. 2-6 months: begins to recognize objects as one image, looks at own hands, recognizes bottle. 6-8 months: sees all colors, likes certain colours, turns head to see object. 9-12 months: can see small objects, can follow fast movement. 18-36 months: can focus near and far, points and gestures for certain objects, scribbles, sometimes in imitation. Moving objects: babies learn that an object that appears to be one single entity should move in space in one piece.
