Ages and Stages tells how children learn and grow
at different ages. Children don’t all grow and learn the same way.
It is a good idea to read the Ages and Stages that comes before
and after your child’s age. Ages and Stages is made up of
two parts:
This
Is How I Grow
Each child grows differently. This Is How I Grow gives a few ideas
about how children may act at different ages. There are whole books written
about different ages. This part is designed to help you learn why your
child acts the way he or she does, not tell you how she is supposed to
act. Don’t worry if your child acts differently than the ideas in the
This Is How I Grow. You are the expert on your own child. If you
want to know more about ages and stages see your librarian for child development
books by Louise Ames Bates and Frances L. Ilg. There is one book for each
age from 1 year to 14 years. If you are worried about your child, talk
to your doctor, a teacher, or someone your trust.
This
Is How I Learn
Children learn in different ways at different ages. Each child has their
own way of learning. This Is How I Learn tells what is important
at different ages. Again, don’t worry if your child learns differently.
Some children are very active learners while others learn from watching.
Be a keen observer. Watch and discover how your child learns.
