Development starts from the

head and worksdown the body

A new baby cannot hold up his or her head alone. Yet, within a few months, the baby will be able to sit alone.

This is because control of the spine and central nervous system develops from the top of the head down to the base ofthe spine.

All development happens in the

same order, but canoccur

at different rates.

A baby has to hold his or her head up, learn to sit with support, and then without support, before he or she can standby holding on to furniture and then eventually walk alone.

No baby can learn to walk before sitting up. But it is perfectly normal for one baby to walk at ten months and another not to learn this skill until the age of 18 months.

All areas of development arelinked together.

A baby cannot start to finger feed until he or she can sit up and is developing the ability to pick things up between thefingers and thumb.

The speech development of a child is affected if the child has difficulties in hearing clearly or if no one talks directly tohim or her.

A child who does not receive love and attention may fail to grow and develop. Finally, remember that to develop to their best potential, children need huge amounts of support and guidance fromothers in their lives.

Failure to meet all of the needs of a baby or child can have serious consequences on his or her development.
