Go, baby, go!
Article Abstract:
Crawling is any form of prone progression, or moving in which the tummy faces the floor, that takes a baby's motor abilities to a new level. It also spurs growth and refines a host of other skills. Joseph Campos, PhD, a renowned child development specialist at the Institute of Human Development at the University of California-Berkeley and writer of the journal 'Infancy' considers crawling and its many incarnations to be the psychological birth of a baby.
