How do babies recognize their parents?

At first your world was small. It was only as big as your mother’s or father’s arms. You quickly learn to recognise your mother’s and father’s faces. You liked to be close to them.

Soon your world grew bigger. Your home and all the things in it were part of your world. You learned to crawl, so you moved around and explored your growing world.

As you grew bigger, your world grew bigger too. Your parents took you to new places – parks, shops, restaurants, and places to play. You have watched and listened to learn more about these places. You met new people. You met other people in your family, family friends, other children, and babysitters.

As you grow older, your world continues to grow. It grows to include your school, other people’s homes, playing fields, and swimming pools. Every time you go somewhere new, you will add to your ever-growing world.

Think of all the different places you have been today – for example, school, the shops, the doctor’s surgery, and home. Ask an adult to help you make a list of these places. Now draw a picture of each place. Ask an adult to help you write a sentence or two about your drawings. Next time, think of all the places you have been in a week.
