Everything Baby<\/span> does can feel like a clue about who they\u2019s<\/span> going to grow into, but questions as basic as which hand they\u2019ll<\/span> use to sign their<\/span> name aren\u2019t always easy to figure out in children as young as Baby<\/span> is. For something that can seem so simple, handedness is a complex scientific question, and it\u2019s still not clear exactly why anyone turns out to be a righty or a lefty, so the fact that you and Baby<\/span> aren\u2019t sure which one they is<\/span> going to be isn\u2019t too much of a surprise. As they grows<\/span>, though, which hand they favors<\/span> will become more and more clear.<\/span><\/p>\n

Handedness development timeline<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Between the ages of 2 and 3, it\u2019s common to start to see toddlers favor one hand over the other for certain tasks, and by the age of 5 or 6, handedness is usually pretty set in stone. It\u2019s not necessarily a one-or-the-other question, though – many people, both children and adults, have one hand that they favor for certain tasks, like eating, and the other hand for other tasks, like building with blocks, throwing a ball, or counting on their<\/span> fingers.<\/span><\/p>\n

A 2013 Canadian study suggests that handedness preference might develop earliest when it comes to food, and then later spread to other tasks. On the other hand, when adults talk about handedness, writing hand is one of the main things they discuss, but most toddlers don\u2019t start penning their first masterpiece until at least the age of 4 or 5. In the end, there are some children who start to show a strong hand-preference earlier on, while others stay somewhat ambidextrous for a while longer, and a few stay ambidextrous their whole lives.<\/span><\/p>\n

Theories about handedness<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The two poles of speculation about how handedness forms are, first, that handedness is mostly genetic, or, second, that it\u2019s largely environmental. Evidence suggests that the truth falls somewhere in-between. If handedness was totally genetic, there wouldn\u2019t be sets of identical twins who have different hand-preferences. On the other hand, if handedness wasn\u2019t at least somewhat genetic, there probably wouldn\u2019t be such a strong tendency towards right-handedness – only about one-tenth of people are left-handed. Left-handedness also runs fairly strongly in families, though not entirely, which leads some researchers to speculate that there\u2019s a gene or series of genes for right-handedness, and that children who don\u2019t have the genetic tendency towards right-handedness are just as likely to grow up to be right-handed as left-handed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most researchers and experts believe that the question of handedness is more complicated than just a question of genetics, or just a question of environment. It\u2019s not clear what <\/span>does <\/span><\/em>cause handedness, but there are several factors that have been shown <\/span>not <\/span><\/em>to determine handedness, including a child\u2019s health at birth, their<\/span> parents\u2019 employment situation or familial income, parental attitudes, or the learning resources available to them<\/span> as they grows<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n
