1.2 – Throughout children’s development, activities and milestones can link into more than one learning area. To give an example of this, I draw on an activity I carried out and observed, involving a child who attended a nursery I was an employee at. It was a creative activity based around a book. First, we had to read the book, which encouraged the child to use their literacy skills as they handled the printed pages with interest. The reading also linked to personal, social and emotional development as the child climbed onto my knee to listen to the story. They were one of my key children, who I had a duty to build a special bond with. After we had finished the book I brought it over to the creative table. The child followed me and sat down. I gave them some paper and a paint brush and indicated to the page they could copy off. The picture was of a bear. The child used their fine motor skills to dip the brush into the paint and to move it around the paper.…

Babies to toddlers 0-3 years- Babies physically develop very quickly. They have built in reflexes from birth such as latching on to feed, sucking and grabbing. Babies are very inquisitive, grabbing objects and passing them between their hands as their hand to eye coordination improves. Usually most babies are mobile by their first birthday, rolling, crawling and even walking. In their second year they start to walk, or become more confident walkers. They will use their…

0-3 Years Old – New born babies have very little control over their movements, they tend to react to sound, light and visual stimulants. They use basic actions on a regular basis such as pinching to pick up objects and suckling. As babies/children grow they have more control over their movements and gain strength to be able to crawl and walk. They begin to refine their control to enable them to develop skills such as writing, drawing and painting. At this stage the development is rapid and most of the learning is done through playing.…
Harry is a 5 year old boy who lives at home with his mother father, big sister and little brother, Harry has a hearing impairment in both ears and wears hearing aids. This has had an effect on Harry’s speech affecting his ability to communicate like other children his age. He often gets frustrated this effects his emotional and behavioural development. Wearing hearing aids Harry has realised that he is the only child in his class at school who wears these aids and he feels that he is different from all the other children this has an impact on his social, emotional and physical development as it affects the way he socialises with the other children and that he has realised that he looks different from the rest of the children.

1.1 Describe the expected pattern of children and young people’s development from birth to 19 years to include…
There are expected patterns of development for children from birth to 19 years old. Although all children are individuals and unique and there are factors which can have a bearing on development such as health, environment and home life and parenting these milestones happen naturally. The patterns start from birth with new-born babies having very little control of their bodies and are totally dependent. Up to 1 month old, a baby can focus both eyes and use different facial expressions. They will be able to turn their head towards the source of a sound and detect smells for example the smell of milk from their mother’s breast. A sucking reflex is also present allowing baby to take milk from the breast or bottle. By 2-3 months a baby will be able to mimic a smile from a familiar face for example when a parent or sibling smiles they can usually smile back as well as being able to imitate some movements and facial expressions. Due to strengthened neck muscles, a baby of 2-3 months old will be able to hold their head up for short periods of time which will move onto having more control over their head and arm movements allowing them to reach, grasp and put objects their mouth and will investigate/explore objects by shaking, hitting, turning, dropping and throwing them- this usually happens by 6 months old. By now they would also have enough grip and coordination to hold their own bottle. At around 7-9 months having gained muscle strength they become a lot more mobile and should be able to sit unaided and crawl or bottom shuffle. By 10-12 months they can stand and mimic simple actions. As they pass their first birthday and towards 1½ we refer to them as toddlers…
