Main focus is still on the infant's body." [9] As an example of this type of reaction, an infant might repeat the motion of passing their hand before their face. Also at this phase, passive reactions, caused by classical or operant conditioning, can begin. [10] | 3 Secondary circular reactions phase | 4–8 months | Development of habits. "Infants become more
In the article, An Historical Commentary on the Physiological Effects of Music: Tomatis, Mozart and Neuropsychology, the results of a study conducted by Dr. Alfred Tomatis are explored. As early as 23 days old, a fetus can detect sound by feeling the vibrations. Dr. Alfred Tomatis used fiber optic cameras to observe the movement of the fetus in regard to sound. Though the particular muscle moved varied in each child, each time the same phoneme was sounded, the same muscle responded. This sensory-motor response allows the fetus to begin learning language in utero.

Allowing for the newborn to have many interactions with both their parents and other newborns will start the development of their social and emotional skills. When it comes to physical development, babies quickly develop muscle tone and by three months, most can raise their head when lying on their stomach and can open their hands and suck on their fingers (Spock, 2001, p.102). Their eyes can track a moving object and they are beginning to recognize faces. By seven months, an infant will reach for an object, sit up, roll over, babble and begin to show an interest in a mirror image. By their first
1.2 Explain the different between sequence of development and rate of development and why the difference is important : Sequence of development is a developing process resulting in children and young people's growth and development, knowledge and behaviour skills in order for them to develop which results in children and young people growing physically and reaching age appropriate milestones for example birth to 4 months the typical sequence of motor development begins with a 4 month infant raising their head and chest, sitting up with adult support, rolling over and batting objects placed in front of them. 4 to 8 months infants begin to gain control of their head and arm movements and begin to sit up alone. 8 to 12 months infants begin to reach for and grasp objects, being to creep up stairs and stand up holding on furniture. The Pincer grasp has evolved which allows a child to pick up objects bringing together their thumb and index finger. 12 to 24 months Toddlers begin to creep up stairs, stand alone for a few seconds and begin to walk alone or begin to run, draw on paper and kick a ball and 24 to 36 months Children can use crayons, begin to ride a tricycle and jump off a step.
Lifespan Development 20th March 2010 Essay: Using key research studies, critically evaluate theories of attachment. Throughout the following essay i will be explaining different theories of attachment; I will be critically evaluating key research studies, including the work of John Bowlby, Schaffer and Emerson and Mary Ainsworth. Attachment describes a strong, emotional bond that endures overtime between an infant and their caregiver. Many researchers believe that attachment develops through a series of stages. Rudolfe Schaffer and Peggy Emerson (1964) studied sixty babies at monthly intervals for the first eighteen months of life; and a regular pattern was identified in the development of attachment (Hardy, S. 1995).
Each aspect is important and all have impact on each other. To better explain the sequence and rate of each aspect of development, the development will be divided into age groups: ZERO TO SIX MONTHS BABY Physical Development: • From the birth each month we can see the changes in the weight of the baby and the growth of the body parts • It will be able to turn its head to sound and movement • Watch the parent’s face while feeding • Smile at familiar faces and voices • stretches to reach its feet while lying down • tries to reach for and grab objects • keeps things in its mouth independently. Social and emotional development: • A six month old baby will respond to their mother’s face, smile. • Needs comfort and cuddles from their parents. Language development: • A six month old baby will be able to make a variety of happy sounds.
Therefore, parents create an environment that actively outlines the children’s gender roles throughout their childhood (Susan, 2007). Children’s sense of mushrooming, or self – acknowledgement, is usually as a result of multiple ideas, attitudes, believes and behaviors which they are exposed to on a daily basis. Children gather information that comes within the family dome through the interactions with their parents. This is achieved through bolstering of preferred behaviors, parental approval and disapproval and role modeling (Berk, 2013). Through these parent-children interactions as they develop, they learn gender stereotype behaviors.
| 16-19 years | The body is being shaped and defined at a quick rate. | Physical Development Understanding Child and Young Person Development Intellectual and Cognitive Development Age Range | Sequence and rate of development | 0-3 months | Can recognise the sound of their mother voice, will start to stop crying when hearing her voice. | 3-6 months | At this stage children and young people are learning more about the things going on around them, such as mobile and toys. | 6-9 months | Are more aware of what’s going on around them, Will be exploring things with their things with their fingers and mouth. | 9-12 months | At this stage more and more things will be going into their mouth as they begin to explore everything they can get their hands on.
They also start to become more alert when awake and start to hold smaller items in a “grasp” such as a rattle. On their tummy they push with their hands and flex their feed and are able to rollover. 0-3 Months : Communication / Intellectual Within a week of being born, newborns know the voices
