The Importance of Knowing a Baby’s Development

Love it when there's a baby. The tiny tots are real stress relievers although it can be hard to wake up in the middle of the night in every cry they give. Yup! Taking care of kids, especially during their infant stage can really be hard work and is definitely not a joking matter. However seeing their development and guiding them in the process is appreciating God's work. Their smiles are like the light in the darkness and your child's happiness is the perfect reward for a parent’s hardship.

There are many things that parents must understand to give their kids the best attention they need. The earlier years are considered as the most crucial time. Learning during this stage needs guidance from everything that their sensory feels. Baby milestones like head control to rolling over to griping, sitting and crawling, are definitely something great to watch and at times parents take videos to keep as mementos.

There are things parents should watch out.
1. Physical development
2. Social development
3. Brain development

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

Physical development is encouraged in order to improve skills in coordination, control and manipulation and movement. It is a must that children be supported for them to understand more about the connection of the world to their body. This will give them a good insight about the importance of their physical activities and choices that may lead to their good health.

There are certain aspects to Physical Development:

1. Movement and Space- which is concern on how children learn movements with confidence, their imagination and their caution from themselves and those around them.
2. Health and Body Awareness-this is concern with kids learning the importance of good health and how they can contribute to taking care of their very own health.
3. Using of Equipment and Materials - it is how kids learn about the usage and how to handle objects of different sizes.

SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT

Social Development is about the way a child interacts with his environment--the people around him and how he deals with activities like what the result would be in everything he hears and sees.

The most common topic when it comes to the discussion of this aspect in a child's growth is finding a playgroup.

Playgroups are perfect in helping children to learn more about them and harnessing their abilities when it comes to interacting with the people around them. They must go with their age groups. one benefit is that they'll be able to learn how to deal gaining friends (adjusting to social differences), working with a group (teamwork),and being able to express themselves more effectively especially in terms of emotions. It is best that as early as they are still babies or while the mommy is pregnant, that the family does their own tenant screening to see other moms with kids that may be great playmates for their babe.

BRAIN DEVELOPMENT

Brain development is one important aspect in man's growth. Knowledge is power and our rational thinking is considered as an important aspect that defines us.

Background screening shows that the first three years of human life is considered as a critical stage for emotional and intellectual growth. It is in these years that 75 percent of brain growth is completed. development of the said factors are said to manifest during 4th grade and however whatever she learns from earlier years affects the child still. Here are things to consider why this is important in his development.

• A child who is usually read to has a higher chance of becoming a reader.
• If curiosity is encouraged he has a better chance of becoming a lifetime learner.
• If he has been nurtured with stress around him this might result to him becoming violent.

There are more things to consider to fully giving the right attention the child needs. While they are still within the womb it is best to take care of them already, plus do background check on things that may affect his growth once he enters the world—these matter. Remember that a fetus is not part of the mother's body but has his own identity.
