Throwing toys and breaking toys is a common phenomenon for the 10 months to 1 year and a half infants' mental development, and also a manifestation of intellectual development.
5 or 6 months old baby has further hand-eye coordination, and can grasp toys under the guidance of line of sight. At this time, the baby's both hands do not coordinate good enough, when he holding a toys in one hands that he does not want, the baby do not knot to pick up the toy he want with the other empty hand.
8 months later, this performance of infants becomes more and more obvious. The more adults would not let him throw, the more energetically he threw the toy. This behavior can be understood as a child generates interest in their power to change objects. In the process of throwing things, baby can gain different experiences from different feelings of items thrown on the different distance, sound and reaction.
