» DEVELOPMENT OF

YOURCHILD

•All childeren follow the same developmental pattern & sequence .

•No two childeren , even twins develop the same way .

•

•Every child starts holding neck

•and then turning over ,•and then creeping ,•and then crawling ,•and then sitting up ,•and then standing up ,•and then starts walking

same sequence for all ; everywhere.

•Don’t compare your child with

neighbours’.•Always compare with

his previous development.

•.

•Some children show fast development while

some are slow .• Baby’s nature , family

pattern & environmental

stimulation are deciding factors.

•When baby starts doing new things he forgets the previous milestone .

•eg. Child doesn’t prefer to stay on back when he knows how to turn

over on tummy .

• There are some lulls & some spurts in the

development .• Developmental

achievements don’t occur at a steady speed.

•Temporary regressions are common with even

minor illnesses.•So a child may forget

to do the things he used to do before

falling sick .•But don’t worry ! He willl do it soon & even

go further.

Child Development occurs under four

major heads.

•PHYSICAL-•MENTAL•LANGUAGE•SOCIAL

•Fine motor control is more important than gross motor control.

•Mental development is important than just

physical development

•Child allowed to play on his own

under supervision & encouragement develops faster .

•An over protected child develops late & may lose confidence.

•Let the child make mistakes &

learn .•Just see that he doesn’t get hurt

or destroys valuables.

•Always have more time with your children

• Talk to them •Cuddle & hug them .

•Encourage them to learn.

• A child staying in a group of children with

many adults around develops faster.

•Child born on second birth order develops faster.

•Enjoy your child’s development

Its quite a fun!•Learn new things

from him & find yourself growing

too !!
