Child Observation Paper
First of all I should point out the physical state of the child. He is very active, curious, and reacted adequately to his age group in various life situations during the observation. The child was in a good mood, he smiled; there were no signs of probable illness which could be noticed in such a short period of time. The boy was in a good mood, didn’t behave capriciously.

On hearing a loud sound made by him a happy smile appears on his face. Most one-year-olds do this and it is supposed to be a useful time for them to develop their sensory
