Certainly he te moving toward that skiU. With repeated efforts he somehow manages to get what he wants. Growing Child, the m o n t h l y c h i l d development newsletter, reports that although a five-month- old still frequently corrals an object by gathering it in with bow arms and hands, he te now beginning to reach for it with one hand.

A baby learns to grasp and hold an object quite some time before he learns to release it on purpose. At first he releases the object because bis grasp on the object will relax gradually, or because his intereet was at­ tracted to something He first leerno to Ms grssp on purpbee by throwing the object \ something to look forward to!
