The soft spot, or fontanelle, on a baby's head gradually closes as the skull bones fuse together, typically completing this process by around 18 months of age. This allows for brain growth during infancy while providing the skull with flexibility for the birth process. Over time, the soft spot becomes less pronounced and ultimately disappears, resulting in a fully formed skull. Proper care and monitoring ensure that any changes in the soft spot are normal and healthy.
