Developmental Milestones

Developmental milestones are key skills or behaviors that most children achieve by specific ages, reflecting their growth in areas like motor, social, language, and cognitive abilities. For example, infants typically learn to roll over, sit up, and say simple words as they grow. These milestones help parents and professionals monitor a child's development, identifying any delays or concerns early on. Understanding these benchmarks can guide caregivers in supporting children’s growth through appropriate activities and interactions, ensuring they reach their full potential as they progress through different stages of early childhood.
