A baby who has discovered cruising will "walk" around a room while supporting herself with furniture and other surfaces. To encourage walking, hold your baby's hands when she's standing facing you and see whether she can step toward you. Some 9-month-olds are ready to practice walking with a stable push toy. One prop not to use is a walker, as they are associated with serious injuries and can impede normal development, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics

My Duty now
Does the idea of telling stories to a baby who can't fully understand what you're saying seem odd? It shouldn't. Spinning made-up tales for your little one offers plenty of benefits. For one, your baby is at an age when she's rapidly absorbing language and working to process it. Hearing your voice -- in engaging sentences structured into a story -- helps boost her speech development. Storytelling is a fun activity to share, too. And the practice you get with an adoring audience now will make you even more comfortable as a tale-teller when you have an appreciative toddler or preschooler hanging on your every word.
Start simply. Don't know any good children's stories? Not to worry. Simply talk about yourself and your baby. Make up stories like "Our Big Trip to the Grocery Store" or "When I Was a Baby." As your child grows older, she'll increasingly love hearing about herself. And don't forget the classic fairy tales or Mother Goose stories, which you can retell in your own words. You'll find plenty of books with these stories in libraries and in new or used bookstores if your memory needs a helpful jog.
Make it lively. You'll catch your baby's attention by including the occasional unusual sound: "Then we heard rrrruff! rrrruff! and saw the silly doggie eat the cookie." Or, "The baby chick looking for his mother said peep peep peep." Shifting your tone to a high pitch or a deep growl and making different facial expressions also adds interest.
Repeat yourself. Repetition makes a story interesting to any young listener. Think of the three little pigs repeatedly saying, "Not by the hair of my chinny chin chin," and the big bad wolf doing all that huffing and puffing. Recurring elements also help your child become familiar with a story as you retell it time and again, which builds her confidence as well as her delight.
