Grasping occurs during the first 2 to 3 months as a reflex and gradually becomes voluntary. By 5 months, infants are able to voluntarily grasp objects. Gradually, the palmar grasp [using the whole hand] is replaced by a pincer grasp [using the thumb and index finger]. By 8 to 10 months of age, infants use a crude pincer grasp, and by 11 months, they have progressed to a neat pincer grasp. By 11 months, they put objects into containers and like to remove them. By age 1 year, infants try to build towers of two blocks but fail.

Exercise more with your children.

Provide fresh fruits and vegetables rather than empty calories such as those found in doughnuts and store-bought pastries.

Decrease trips to fast-food restaurants.

Switch to low-fat foods; use vegetable oil cooking sprays in place of butter; bake or broil foods instead of frying them.
Seek the advice of a nutritionist.

If there is a family history of heart disease, have the child's as well as your levels of cholesterol tested.
