Most babies learn to walk between 9 and 15 months, with some starting as early as 8 months or as late as 18 months.

Estimated Duration: 45 days

Babies typically begin walking between 9 to 15 months, though development varies. Key milestones include crawling, pulling up, and cruising before taking their first steps. Encouragement, safe spaces to practice, and muscle-strengthening activities like tummy time help. Factors like genetics, physical strength, and confidence influence timing. Consult a pediatrician if walking doesn’t begin by 18 months. Early walking doesn’t necessarily indicate advanced development, as each child progresses at their own pace.
