When talking about developoment stages, remember each child is unique

As we discuss learning activities and developmental stages, remember that each child is unique. Your child may not respond to certain activities or situations in precisely the same way as other children her age. She may develop at a different rate than what is outlined in this blog. She may master things more quickly, or may take a little more time. These differences are to be expected and should not cause you any degree of alarm. The parameters outlined in this blog are given as general guidelines; individual differences, exceptions and variations are to be welcomed and expected.
