Study Notes
Physical Development in Early Childhood
- The physical development of a child progresses in a predictable pattern, with specific characteristics at different ages.
- Cephalocaudal Trend: Development proceeds from head to toe. For example, infants develop the ability to use their upper limbs before their lower limbs.
- Proximodistal Trend: Growth occurs from the center of the body outwards. For example, infants learn to turn their bodies before developing control of their hands and fingers.
- Normative Development: Defines the typical abilities of children at a given age within a particular culture. It identifies the expected developmental range, helping parents and teachers understand what's typical at different ages.
- Dynamic Development: Refers to the sequential changes in all aspects of a child's functioning over time.
- Muscular Strength, Coordination, and Perception: Three key areas of development needed to perform complex physical tasks.
- Large to Small Muscle Development: Larger muscles in the trunk, arms, and legs develop before the smaller muscles in the fingers, hands, and wrists.
- Top to Bottom Muscle Development: Muscle development progresses from head to toe.
- Inside to Outside: Muscle development moves from the center of the body outwards.
