My daughter is now 20 months old. She likes to go up and down the stairs so much. She cannot walk up the stairs all by herself yet unless she's holding on something for support or crawl up. When she sees the stairways or the escalator in the mall, she always run over there and insist to go up and down. Does anyone's baby like this? Is it a problem or she is only feeling funny to go up and down the stairs?
Thank you. I feel better where there is another baby like that too. I am very frustrated to chase her when she insists running to the stairs. It's hard to walk with her nowadays.
walking up and down stairs are new skills to them. They'd like to practice new skills. They feel exited when they think they can master them. My two daughters had same behaviour when they were 1.5-2.5 years. When kids grow up to 4-6 years and master the skill very well, they will no longer be interested. Don't worry.
