Overview

The Rambo of the play group has arrived! With an Aries baby around, you can expect lots of action and activity in your midst. Don't expect this tot to sit still with a rattle -- it just won't happen. The Aries baby is one who makes a lot of noise and will definitely be heard. There's really no choice! As a Fire sign, the little Ram will be dynamic and always up to something. Will this be a tough baby to deal with? More than likely. To that end, parents would be wise to show this child how to work with other babies early on. Things such as sharing won't come naturally, they must be learned. Even where siblings are concerned, the Aries child won't be a walk in the park. What the Aries baby may want most of all, however, is attention, so parents be well advised. In a play setting, the Aries tot will easily get the attention of others on their own. This baby will also start many things early, the better to get to the finish line, so to speak, in a hurry. To sum up, the Arian baby can be quite independent but enjoys interacting with others. This baby is a fairly physical child and craves constant stimulation. They will be ready from day one!

Early Aries: March 21 to 30

As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries babies end up being first in pretty much all they do. In order to be first they need to be fast, and this little one will graduate from crawling to running in no time flat (consider installing bumper pads at the end of the hallway). Your little ram is enthusiastic and competitive. Whether in sports or music (or both), expect her blue ribbon collection to grow in size as quickly as she does.

Mid Aries: March 31 to April 9

Feisty Mars is the ruler of Aries, and these kids have a natural zest and joy for living. Your wee one is definitely a happy baby, but you'll find there's a tiny temper in there, too! When she gets upset, everyone knows about it. It's fleeting, though, and the clouds depart as quickly as they gathered, revealing her usual sunny disposition. When she's older, her optimism, self-confidence and natural leadership abilities will make her "the one to watch."

Late Aries: April 10 to 19

Aries kids are always on the move. They prefer to "just do it" as opposed to thinking about it for long. She thinks as fast as she moves, so expect a few arguments when you try to give her a flat out "No!" without a good reason. Your little one may look before she leaps on a regular basis, but that's because this is the bravest, most courageous sign of the zodiac. You could have a budding professional athlete or future CEO on your hands.
