2-4 Month Sensory Milestones | Baby’s Visual Tracking & Senses

By 4 months, Baby’s eyes are more coordinated! They can track objects more smoothly and keep their head centered to look at faces while on their back. These 2-4 month sensory milestones are important signs that Baby is growing typically and gaining the skills they'll need for future development.

Tracking these milestones helps you support healthy sensory development and notice if Baby needs a little extra help.

✅ Eyes track together by 3 months
✅ While lying on back, attempts to reach for a toy held above their chest
✅ While lying on back, keeps head centered to watch faces or toys
