The Life Cycle

of Change

Newborn babies are

just beginning their

life cycles.

Most of us know about the life cycles of butterflies and

frogs. They begin as eggs and then change and grow throughout

their lives. But have you thought about the life cycle of a

human being?

People change and grow from the time they are born until

the time they die. They keep learning, too. People develop

wonderful abilities as they grow.

People grow from

infancy to childhood,

to adolescence, to

adulthood, and finally

to old age.

Think about all the things you can do today. Could you do

those things just a few years ago?

Infants often

learn about the

world around

them by putting

things in their

mouths.

How Big?

Babies are tiny, but they dont all weigh the same

when they are born. Newborn babies usually

weigh between and pounds at birth. But

some babies are as small as one pound at birth

and have survived. The largest baby ever born,

according to the Guinness Book of World Records,

was pounds! Thats the size of three or four

average babies!

Infancy

We all begin as babies. This is called infancy . Infancy is a

time of fast growth and change in a short period of time.

One to Four Months

At first, babies, or infants , are helpless. They are very small,

and they need to hours of sleep each day. Over time, they

learn to hold their heads up and roll over.

Young babies dont have good eyesight, but their senses

of smell, hearing, and taste are very good. What do babies do

when they grab toys? They put them in their mouths. This is

the best way they have to explore their world.

As their eyesight develops, young babies begin to identify

different faces. They can tell the differences between colors

and patterns. They begin to imitate peoples expressions . They

recognize the voices of their caregivers . And they communicate,

mostly through crying.

Eyesight

Young babies are best

able to see things that

are to inches away

from them.

Four to Eight Months
