It is often said that babies/young toddlers can't focus for longer than a few minuts. I disagree. If he is interested in something, he can focus on it even for 15 minutes. It is a lot about letting the child to be focused, not to disturb him by offering other activity (the other day I saw a 15-month old at the playground examining a piece of grass, but his father was distracting him by telling him to go to play with him with the ball) and about simplicity of the environment (the most challenging for us), so it doesn't distract the child.
