Explain the Sequence and Rate of Each Aspect of Development from Birth – 19 Years.
The development of children is continuous; the development a child makes can be measured in a variety of ways. Children will develop at different rates, so some quicker than others. But, the sequence in how children develop is usually the same such as; walking, a child has to be walking in order for them to develop more so that they can then start running or jumping etc. the child development is normally looked at on a timeline and is then broken up into different ages. The development is quickest during the early years and the milestones will be close together, but as the baby becomes a child these milestones will become further apart from each other. The development of children is measured on their physical, language, social and emotional and also their intellectual development.
Physical development;
I am going to start by talking about physical development; the physical development is normally very quick early on. It only takes a few weeks after a baby being born in which the baby will start to smile and will begin to respond to sounds and the environments that surround them.
By the age of one, the baby is now starting to crawl or if not will most likely be able to shuffle themselves to where they want to go. The baby will also be able to pull or push on the furniture. The baby should be able to sit without support and the way in which they handle and hold things will have changed. They will begin to look for things that are hidden or they cannot find. The baby’s first teeth will start to show and solid foods can now be introduced.
Between the ages of one and two, the baby is now becoming a toddler, they will start to walk and will pull or push toys along with them whilst walking. They will pick a few objects up and will bang them together. They can also start to choose what hand they do things with such as holding a pen and making marks on the paper. This is the age where they like to get messy when eating! They like to feel independent and will like to
