The one on the top of the head, which is called the ?soft spot,? remains present until your baby is between 7 and 19 months old. A soft spot is closed when the opening can no longer be felt. The soft spot commonly closes at 18 months of age, but it could close any time between the ages of 5 and 26 months. If your child reaches 27 months of age and the soft spot is not closed, your child needs to be checked by your paediatrician
