Young child playing in squatting position Child development entails the biological, psychological and emotional changes that occur in human beings between birth and the end of adolescence, as the individual progresses from dependency to increasing autonomy. It is a continuous process with a predictable sequence, yet having a unique course for every child. It does not progress at the same rate and each stage is affected by the preceding developmental experiences. Because these developmental changes may be strongly influenced by genetic factors and events during prenatal life, genetics and prenatal development are usually included as part of the study of child development. Related terms include developmental psychology, referring to development throughout the lifespan, and pediatrics, the branch of medicine relating to the care of children.

9. Developmental Milestones

10. 5 DOMAINS OF
DEVEOLPMENT
• PHYSICAL : Biological growth,acquisition of fine
motor(small muscle) skill and gross(large muscle)
motor skill.
Gross motor skills: This skills are the use of large
muscles in arms, legs.
Fine motor skills: This skills are the use of small
muscles as fingers wrists
• COGNITIVE: It refers skills such as learning,
remembering, thinking, intelligence.

11. 5 DOMAINS OF

development theory

13. COGNITIVE
DEVELOPMENTAL THEORY
• Piagets constructivist theory explained how children
learn by constructing their own knowledge through
their experiences.

development in 4stages that every child will go
through.
Sensorimotor(birth-2)
Preoperational(2-7)
Concrete Operational(7-11)
Formal Operational(11-adult)

19. ABRAHAM
MASLOW
presented self-
actualization theory

20. Maslows theory
Maslows hierarchy of humans needs shows that needs
motivates behavior and goals and his discovered
pyramid shows our basic needs and growth needs.
This theory helps us understand how children are

belongings etc.
