- B.

During this period, children also begin to explore their surroundings, develop language skills, and show increased independence in their actions and decision-making. The term "foetus" refers to the stage of development before birth, "crawlers" refers to babies who are in the stage of crawling, and "biters" does not accurately describe the age group mentioned in the question.
