Developmental Continuum: How Infants Make Short Body Movements

A clear example of developmental continuum is how infants make short body movements. While some two-year-old children can barely jump from a wooden box with the help from caretakers, other children can jump on their own.

This can happen when children follow instructions, when children take turns or when children realize possible dangers when partaking in various activities. For example, children ranging from three to four-years-old are capable of going up a moving stairway. Children also do more difficult acrobatics but with more precaution. The three basic elements that these children are applying are coordination, balance, and strength. If the children notice they are not wearing the appropriate equipment for a certain activity, they will still continue because they are certain that they can complete this task.

This will cause them to improve their social abilities. One of the oldest girls shares her sticky notes with a younger girl so that they can both paste them on the wall.
