As parents, we are always in search of reassurance to know that the steps we are taking to guide our little ones are correct and leading them through the right path. Unfortunately, no child comes with their instruction manuals in hand and we, very often, find our selves not knowing what to do or expect. So, for this month's article, I thought of writing about major characteristics of each developmental stage in early childhood, and some tips for you, parents, which will make your parental experience more enjoyable and clear.

It is important to keep in mind that the way you relate with your children, sets the foundation for their healthy development. Their experiences and the way you respond to them are permanently shaping who they are and the way they adapt to the world. Your child's development depends on nature but also on nurture. Also, consider that all developmental areas (social/emotional/intellectual/language/motor) depend on each other and are connected. Development is not a race. Tune into your child's individual path and enjoy the process, Yes, it is a process.
