Eating and feeding performance
Sensorimotor
Cognition
Psycho-social
Eating and feeding performance: Takes cereal or poured baby food from spoon.
Sensorimotor: Has good stability and emerging sitting abilities reaches and grasps toys, explores and tolerates various textures (eg. fingers, rattles) Puts objects in mouth.
Cognition: Attends to effect produced by actions, such as hitting or shaking.
Psycho-social: Plays with caregiver during meals and engages in interactive routines.
Age: 6-8 months

Psycho-social
Eating and feeding performance: Attempts to hold bottle but may not retrieve it if it falls, needs to be monitored for safety reasons.
Sensorimotor:
Cognition: Object performance is emerging and infant anticipates spoon or bottle.
Psycho-social: Is easily distracted by stimuli (especially siblings) in the environment.
Age: 6-9 months
Eating and feeding performance
Sensorimotor
Cognition
Psycho-social
Eating and feeding performance: Holds and tries to eat cracker but sucks on it more than bites it, consumes soft foods that dissolve in the mouth, grabs at spoon but bangs it or sucks on either end of it.
Sensorimotor: Good sitting stability emerges, able to use hands to manipulate smaller parts of rattle, guided reach and palmer grasp applied to hand to mouth actions with objects.
Cognition: Uses familiar actions initially with haphazard variations. seeks novelty and is anxious to explore objects (may grab at food on adults plate)
Psycho-social: Recognizes strangers, emerging sense of self.
Age: 9-13 months

Psycho-social
Eating and feeding performance: Finger-feed self a portion of meals consisting of soft table food (eg. macaroni, peas, dry cereal) and objects if fed by an adult.
Sensorimotor: Uses various grasps objects of different sizes, able to isolate radial fingers on smaller objects
Cognition: Has increased organization and sequencing of schemes to do desired activity, may have difficultly attending to events outside visual space (eg. position of spoon close to mouth)
Psycho-social: Prefers to act on objects than be passive observer.

Sensorimotor
Cognition
Psycho-social
Eating and feeding performance: Scoops food with spoon and brings it to mouth.
Sensorimotor: shoulder and wrist stability demonstrates precise movements
Cognition: experiments to learn rules of how objects work, actively solves problems by creating new action solutions.
Psycho-social: internalizes standards imposed by others for how to play with objects.
Age: 24-30 months
Eating and feeding performance
Sensorimotor
Cognition
Psycho-social
Eating and feeding performance: Demonstrates interest in using fork, may stab at food such as pieces of canned fruit, proficient at spoon use and eats cereal with milk or rice with gravy with utensil.
Sensorimotor: tolerates various food textures in mouth, adjusts movements to be efficient (eg. forearm supinated to scoop and lift spoon.)
