The document summarizes growth and development from infancy (0-1 year). Key physical milestones include tripling birth weight, increases in height/head circumference, tooth eruption. Gross motor skills progress from reflexes to sitting, crawling, standing/walking with support. Fine motor skills develop from grasping to transferring objects. Language progresses from crying/sounds to 1-3 words. Social/emotional development includes attachment, exploration, and responding to caregivers. Sensory and cognitive abilities also rapidly advance in the first year. Play materials should stimulate physical, cognitive and social development.
