Skills such as taking a first step, smiling for the first time, and waving “bye-bye” are called developmental milestones. Children reach milestones in how they play, learn, speak, behave, and move (for example, crawling and walking). Children develop at their own pace, so it’s impossible to tell exactly when a child will learn a given skill. However, the developmental milestones give a general idea of the changes to expect as a child gets older.
We here at H&H Child Care Training help teachers like yourself take the guess work out of what typical child growth and development should look like and have developed courses to help you navigate these topics, from courses such as Enhancing Life and Development and Grow with Me: Child Development for Mixed Ages just to name a few.
