At around 1 year old some baby fat gets replaced by muscle whilst legs and arms lengthen, by 2 years old arms and legs become more slender, and movement becomes more adult like. Control of bowels and bladder are usually in place by the time the child is 3. Intellectual/ Between the ages of 1-3 children develop a sense of self. By Congitive giving children some space it enables them to make their own choices and decisions. This can lead to a build up of self esteem and confidence.
During this time, a child will go from, sitting, to crawling, to walking, to running, they become more confident as they get older and steadier on their feet. This is also the stage where children will begin to learn of their name and become aware of when they are being called. The child will now feel like he/she needs all the attention so will want to be seen and heard as much as possible. Speech has greatly improved by the age 4-6. In the earlier years they had a vocabulary of 50+ words to now a vastly improved 1000+ words.
STL Level 3 CYP 3.1 Task 3 Compile a table to help parents understand the expected physical development of their 0-19 years. Identify the source that you have obtained this info from – use a different source from the one(s) you used in task 1. (M evidence) Include 2 milestones for each age group. Decide on the age group yourself but they should reflect the rate of development at different stages. 1.1 | |motor skills | | age ranges |milestone 1 |milestone 2 | |0-2 months |When the baby is on |Their gross motor skills | | |their stomach they |will be devolving still | | |will be able to ever|however young they are, | | |so slightly cock |these shows with the | | |their head to the |newborns legs will be able| | |side.
Unit 201 – Child and young person development Outcome 1) Know the main stages of child and young person development 1.1 Describe the expected pattern of children and young people’s development from birth to 19 years. a) Physical development Between birth and 6 months an infant begins to develop a rhythm of feeding, sleeping and eliminating which may correspond with the primary care givers sleeping patterns. The infant will also gain control of eye movement and develop basic motor control so they will be able to balance their head, roll over, pull self to sitting and may briefly sit alone. This will help normal muscle development as the infant grows rapidly, doubling their birth weight. By 12 months the infant will be able to crawl and may be beginning to walk, they will use large objects, furniture and people to pull themselves to standing.
Physical development is usually very rapid early on in the child’s development. Within weeks of being born a baby will start to smile and respond to sounds and environments around them. By 6 months as their muscles begin to develop they will reach for and hold objects which they will also put into their mouths. By one year old they are beginning to crawl or shuffle, pulling or pushing on furniture to stand and then cruise using furniture or adult for support. Sitting has progressed to unaided and they are rolling from their front to their back.
Boys usually taller than girls on average. | Communication and intellectual Development Birth – 3 years | 3 – 7 years | 7 – 12 years | 12 – 19 years | At the earlier stages adults try to communicate with babies even though they will not understand what is being said. It is important for babies to be stimulated. By 1 year babies will try to speak. 1 – 2 years babies will try and put words together.
1.1a Describe the expected pattern of children and young people’s development from birth to 19 years to include physical development: Physical development of children and young people can be often assumed that it will come automatically as they grow and mature. Some children grow and mature at different paste and this sometimes may cause some to behave differently. 0-3years This is a rapid development period where they have very little control of their movements. This is hinge on series of reflex which is needed to survive. In the first year they steadily starting to more control over their body such as rolling and crawling.
They can reach to hold their feet when lying on their backs, . A 6 month old should be able to look and reach for objects, and when holding an object; shake it or put it in their mouth. Between 6 months and 1 year a child will progress to rolling from their stomachs onto their backs, sitting; first with support them unaided for short periods of time and shuffle on their bottoms of crawl. Some children may miss the shuffling stage and crawl straight away. Children will respond to adults in more advaced ways than priror to 6 months, they will raise their arms to be lifted by an adult, turn and look when their hear their name called, and lean against adults to reach a standing position.

Babies at one year need as much as the same as they do at nine months, although you will find they are able to stand on their own whilst holding onto furniture and will start to interact with a little more understanding, such as waving good bye. At eighteen months a child will have more understandable vocabulary and less babbling and you will see they are more determined to do things by themselves. This means they need good adult supervision as they play. As they are more mobile it is important that safety equipment is in place such as reins harnesses and safety gates. You may observe children of two years running and climbing and they
