[quote=Anonymous]1 is pretty young for any special techniques, but have you tried gradually increasing the amount of time you step away from her - so play on the floor for 5-10 minutes and then step away with the baby for 30 seconds? When you come back, make a big celebratory deal out of how she is playing all by herself etc. etc. and join her again. Next time, step away for a little longer. If she starts whining remind her (without coming back to her) that she's waiting patiently for you and playing with her XYZ and you'll be right back. My 11 month old charge whines like crazy if I walk away too, but if I continue talking to him he's all right - even if he can't see me. Good luck![/quote]
