Based on research, the age range when children are considered at their peak cuteness is approximately 6 months to 4 and a half years old.
This timeframe suggests an evolutionary reason behind our perception of cuteness. After 6 months, babies develop more interactive behaviors, facial expressions, and mobility, likely triggering stronger nurturing responses in adults.
While individual preferences vary, and some might find newborns or older children equally cute, the research suggests a peak period for perceived cuteness during toddlerhood and early childhood.
