Development of the Child Checklist Birth - 7 years Place order Frequently Asked Questions Receive our News Flash with specials etc. Price: R280,00 Language: English Age: Birth to 7 years Similar products to consider: Not applicable The
aim of this checklist is to assist teachers and parents to identify early
on when a child has a developmental delay.
It is
so important to remember that each child is unique. Each child develops at
their own pace, therefore no two children's milestones will be achieved at
exactly the same time. When using this checklist, one should remember to
give a two to three months leeway to either side of the time frame given (e.g
if it says that a child has to walk when they are one year old, it can
mean that the child may start walking when he is 9 months or even 15
months old).
If you
see that a child has a delay in more than two important areas, you should
consult your pediatrician.
When a
child has developmental delays, it is recommended that he receives
therapy: speech therapy, occupational therapy, play therapy or which ever
kind of therapy your pediatrician recommends.

child that has developmental delays usually reaches a plato when twelve
years old, so it is very important that this child receives therapy from
an early an age as possible.
This
book also contains age-appropriate stimulation activities. It is not a
standardised test, but a valuabe guideline for developmental milestones
for the following milestones/areas:
