My daughter has the same toy and did the same thing... I'm like, "good job future engineer" but also, "that's not how you're going to build fine-motor skills" I'm torn.
1,105
daddit
My son has the same set. He never even tries to sort it, he just takes the lid off and scatters the blocks I sorted for him (to demonstrate).
1,106

My daughter did exactly this and now that her 5month old cousin has this same toy she actually wants to play with it "correctly" (she's 2-1/2 now)

I like how he had patronizing smile while trying to fit the piece in the hole then stopped and quickly put the piece in

This makes me happy. My son is 9mo and he has the same toy and gets them in the right holes... for about 30 seconds then knocks it over and plays with something else.
1,116
daddit
My daughter does this too. It's actually been hard to try and teach her to turn the shapes for them to fit instead of taking the lid off.
1,117
daddit
What's most impressive to me is that he puts the lid back on. My 5 month old has the same block set and she'll take the lid off too, but it just goes in her mouth.
1,118
daddit
I usually don't comment on these posts, but my daughter is the same age and does the same thing with her shape sorter. It's crazy to see how much she learns every month.

My son use to do the same thing with that toy. I couldn't really be mad, because he was out smarting the toy at a bit over a year old.
1,124

That's some real inside the box thinking right there!

I swear there's another video or Gif out there of a baby doing the exact same thing.

At what age do people start transitioning baby ages from months to years?

This looks like one of those trick questions people ask you to make themselves feel smarter.

Don't you mean a year and a half? As a parent the "months old" thing pisses me off past a year. Like give the kid some credit, they got a year of existing under their belt!

Take the easy way out instead of using smarts. EDIT: let me put it in perspective for the downvoters that seem to have this kids mentality: his parents bought him the toy. they show him the toy. the put the plastic shapes in the right spots for him. he blankly stares back. they OPEN THE TOY AND REMOVE THE SHAPES. they show it to him again how it works. he tard so hards they OPEN THE TOY AND REMOVE THE SHAPES AGAIN. rinse and repeat 10 more times. tsh identifies with the simplest aspect of the toy. that you dont need to figure the toy out when you can just open it up and put the plastic shapes in. the parents didnt buy their kid an educational toy, they bought him a container that holds plastic shapes. at least in his mind. Its amazing to me how many redditors can't see that. The parents are clearly recording failure.

Isn't it more work to lift it up and put the piece in and close the lid again rather than doing the smarter thing and putting it in the right hole?

I was taking a programming class, and there were some really weird problems we had to do, but if you got it wrong the program would tell you what it expected, so you could just submit a blank statement, return all the expected results, and pass.

We got the same toy, too. At 15 months he sometimes can fit the right block into the right hole... but in general he prefers to destroy towers that we build with the blocks.

So glue the lid?

The main reason is that there's a huge difference between 12, 15 and 19 months in terms of development.

The rug isn't from Ikea, but the dresser is!

I would say months are valid until 2 years. Then it stops. Because up until 24 months/2 years, all things for babies are measured in months. Clothes, food, most toys.
1,163
daddit
Do you have any kids? A 19 month old is much different than a 15 month old for example. There is a reason we do this.
1,164
daddit
After they reach a year, you really should stop with the month thing. "My son is 180 months old". "No Martha, he's fucking 15!"
1,165
daddit
I did. I came looking for someone else to say it so I wouldn't be alone in my getting down voted for pointing it out...but yeah it is. I'm actually surprised no one else said anything.
1,166
daddit
A lot of development happens very quickly for babies, a lot can change in a month or two, hence why people tend to say months for like under 2 year olds
1,167

Ya, Legos are meant for kids but I still play with them, what's your point?

The bulk operation is missing. He would need to put in all the pieces after he lifted the top.
1,171
daddit
It is.
1,172
daddit
It's only easier if you know which hole to drop it in.
1,173
daddit
Not really if you automate the process, you just have to lift it once, and put all of them one by one.

Scattering or hitting them together to make noise. Sometimes he likes to dump the whole bucket over.

First it starts with those, then Duplo blocks, then Legos, and then old used syringes.

My daughter has been able to put the blocks where she wants since she was about 11-12 months old. Judging by other responses, is it normal for kids to be much older when they figure it out? She's really good at puzzles, too. Like those wooden ones with farm animal shapes. She just turned 17 months.

Dumping them is best to my 6 month old boy. For sure. Maybe second to waving them around in his hands

Personally I think that it's very random or depends on what the child spends its time with. We've met some couples with children in the last months and it's just so random and so much changes in a few months. Like the toddler friend of my son is pretty dexterous. He has a lot of electronic toys with buttons and specifically presses them, way better than my son who prefers to chew on his toy mobile phone. But my son is more mobile, could have crawled around the other boy when they both were still crawling. At the end I think a lot of those things don't matter for healthy kids.

You're probably right! But to be fair, I was posting it on a subreddit specifically geared towards dads :)

Hm...that is damning. Looking at the way his hand moves with the lid right before he picks it up and during him putting it back on is why I thought it was reversed. But I have been wrong before.
