TDA 2.1 Child & Young Persons Development
1.1 Describe the expected pattern of children and young peoples development from birth to 19 years to include:-
* Physical Development * Communication and Intellectual development * Social , emotional and behavioural development
A child’s development can be measured through physical and language milestones, intellectual, emotional and social development.
Each child follows a similar pattern, but each child can vary in their development and reach milestones at different times in their development. This is called the Holistic Process.
In general, child development progresses:- * From head to toe, beginning at the top of the body and gradually moving downwards. * From inner to outer. Firstly gaining control of muscles close to the trunk/head and then moving outwards so the large muscles in the shoulders and upper arms/thighs are first and the extremities last. * From simple to complex, children progress from simple words to complex sentences. * From general to specific, emotional responses involve the whole body in young babies but may involve only the face in an older child.

Physical Development
Physical development includes movement skills, gross and fine motor skills, eye - hand co-ordination and general coordination. There is also a significant increase in muscular strength.
From birth to 3 months babies have very little control over their bodies and much of their time is spent sleeping, although this is a very fast growth period for physical development. Their first movements are reflex, for example, suckling, grasping a finger. Gradually baby will start to lift its head and gradual movements of the arms and legs become smoother. The grasp reflex is decreased as the hand-eye coordination develops.
From 3 - 9 months babies will begin to gain control of their neck muscles and their
