From around 18 months old, your toddler will probably hold a brush or pen with her whole hand, and make her marks by moving her arms around (Thomson Delmar Learning 2007) .

Babies usually develop the pincer grasp between 9 & 10 months of age. My daughter is 8 1/2 months old too...she gags on occasion when feeding her...it's only if she does not like what I'm giving her.
