The Importance of Hand-Eye Coordination

Your baby is learning a lot about the world through the combination of sight and touch known as Hand-Eye Coordination. This includes activities like handing you a ball, putting together a puzzle, pouring water from a container, or stacking blocks, where the eyes take in information that the hands use to complete the task. Good Hand-Eye Coordination is helpful for more than just play, though; It can boost your baby's learning abilities and social communication skills.

Has your baby achieved the following Hand-Eye Coordination developmental milestones yet? If yes, check off all the skill(s) she has already mastered to date!
