Young make friends before speaking

When they don't speak, they can play and make friends, according to a 2-year study of children's behavior.

>>>15 months old children have distinguished right from wrong

Experts from Charles Sturt University (Australia) conducted a study to learn how children interact with each other at daycare.

To observe through the child's prism, the group of experts put the babies on their heads, and the image of each of the simplest objects was exaggerated.

According to Professor Jennifer Sumsion, research results show that children aged 6 to 18 months use complex but non-verbal ways to make friends and make each other laugh.

Experts are surprised to see children use all the complex movements and gestures that belong to social skills and support skills to invite other children to their group, according to AFP.

Ms. Sumsion said the children interact with each other by eyes, hand movements and humor.

Sumsion's group hopes the research will help reveal the mysterious world of children, as well as their experiences in kindergarten.
