A
Feedback

B The crude pincer grasp is apparent at approximately age 9 months.
C The child can scribble spontaneously at age 15 months.
D At age 12 months, the child can release cubes into a cup.

first 2 to 3 months and then gradually becomes voluntary.

child's age is corrected because of being 2 weeks preterm, the child is at the
midpoint of the range for this developmental task.

child's age is corrected because of being 2 weeks preterm, the child is at the
midpoint of the range for this developmental task.
