Team Lefty or Team Righty? With toddlers, it is often a mystery! ✋🤚🎨

Most children do not actually develop a dominant hand until they are between 2 and 4 years old. Before then, it is completely normal for them to be "ambidextrous," using both hands equally to grab toys, eat snacks, or scribble masterpieces.

If you notice your little one switching hands constantly, don't worry, their brain is still deciding! Enjoy the guessing game while it lasts.

If you have questions about your child's development, we are here to help. Call us at 954-799-4086 to schedule a check-up! 💚💙

Did you know your baby doesn't have hard kneecaps yet? 😮

It’s true! Babies are born with patellas made of soft cartilage. They don't harden into actual bone until age 3 to 5.

Why? It’s nature’s built-in "shock absorber" to protect their little knees during all that crawling and stumbling! 🛡️
Is your little one on the move?

Did you know your baby is ready for fingerprinting the day they are born? 🤯

It's true! Their unique finger loops and whorls fully develop in utero between 17 and 18 weeks and are set for life. That's one amazing tiny human! 💚💙

Did you know your newborn might already be speaking your language? 🗣️🤯

Studies suggest that babies begin picking up the rhythm and melody of their mother's voice while still in the womb. By the time they make their grand entrance, their cries actually mimic that specific "accent!"

It’s their very first step in learning how to communicate with you. How amazing is that?

We love sharing these amazing insights about your little ones! For expert care for your baby here in Hollywood and South Florida, visit us online or give us a call to schedule an appointment. 💚💙

🦴 Fun Fact Friday! 🦴

Here’s a fact that might surprise you: Bones are living tissues!

They aren't just hard, dry sticks. They are active, growing, and constantly rebuilding themselves. This "living" quality is exactly why they have the amazing power to heal and mend after a break. ⚡️

In kids, this repair process is in overdrive, helping them grow strong and healthy! 💚💙

Did you know your little one is a breathing champion? 🏆

A child's resting breath rate is about 40 times per minute! This rapid pace is how their amazing bodies keep up, delivering energy for non-stop playing and growing.

If you have questions about your child's respiratory health or just need a check-up, Dr. V and the team at WonderKidz Pediatrics are here to help.

Happy Halloween and Fun Fact Friday, WonderKidz Families! 🎃

As your little ones get ready to enjoy their treats, here's a helpful fact from Dr. V!

Did you know dark chocolate (with 70% cocoa or more) is a healthier candy choice? 🍫 It's packed with antioxidants and compounds that are good for heart health, making it a smarter way to satisfy that sweet tooth.

A small piece can be a great way to enjoy a Halloween treat!

We wish everyone a safe, fun, and healthy Halloween! 💚💙

Ever wonder why your little one makes that face at new foods? 😂🥦

While babies are born with MORE taste buds than adults, there's one flavor they can't detect right away: salt🧂

Their ability to taste salt doesn't fully develop until around 3-4 months old. This is one of the key reasons why it's so important to avoid adding salt to their food!
