and rate of each aspect of development from birth - 19. 1.2 Explain the difference between sequence of development and why the difference is important. Some aspects of development follow a definite sequence‚ for instance babies learn to lift their heads before they can sit up alone but the rate at what they do it at will vary between each child.
