Object Permanence Activity Cards for Babies 10–11 Months
Object permanence activity cards for 10-11 month old babies can fit naturally into everyday play and routines. For a 10–11-month-old baby, focus on pointing, choosing, imitation, and familiar routines: model one small idea, repeat it naturally, and follow your child’s interest rather than turning the moment into a test.

How to Use It

Words You Can Use
- “Look! Object Permanence. Here it is. Your turn to look/touch. Again?”
- “Which one?”
- “You chose it.”
- “Again?”
Try It for Five Minutes
Use one familiar object and one simple action related to object permanence; repeat the same word/action 3–5 times and let the child explore.
- Gather familiar toys, picture cards, cups, or books.
- Choose one focus: peekaboo, hidden toy, cup reveal.
- Model it first, then pause for your child to look, touch, move, point, speak, or choose.
- Repeat once or twice and finish while it is still fun.
Make It Easier, Then Build
Use one object, one idea, or one choice and model the first turn. When it feels familiar, add one small change—a second object, a new word, another step, or a different place to try it.
