Early Childhood and Developmental Milestones

This post is created for parents mostly to review and approximately estimate developmental skills of your children from birth to first 40 months. You may look at the link provided below to identify if your child’s skills listed in the summery are appropriate for his/her calendar age. If you notice any abnormalities, difficulties in motor function, behavior, please talk to your pediatrician without delays and get referral for Early Intervention evaluations (if necessary). Remember, if your child was born prematurely, you will have to make an adjustment of age by number of months the child was born earlier.

Snapshots will be posted to explain step-by-step how to use this calculator and table.
