Toddler

Understanding the pivotal moments in your child’s early years is more than just watching them take their first steps or say their first words. These early childhood development milestones are foundational blocks for their overall growth, well-being, and future success. At Motus Integrative Health, we’re dedicated to guiding parents through the intricacies of these formative years, ensuring your child isn’t just reaching milestones but soaring beyond them.

Why Early Childhood Development Milestones Matter

Each milestone in a child’s development is a window into their neurological and physical growth. Recognizing these milestones and understanding their importance is the first step toward fostering a nurturing environment for your child’s development. However, noticing areas where support is needed can sometimes be challenging for parents. That’s where our expertise shines.

Typical Developmental Milestones

Normal toddler developmental milestones encompass a wide range of physical, cognitive, and emotional skills that children typically achieve during this stage. 

• Most toddlers can walk and run with better coordination by age 2-3.
• Ability to climb stairs with assistance.
• Engage in simple play activities like throwing a ball or building with blocks.
• Cognitive milestones: follow two-part instructions, recognize familiar objects in books, and begin to pretend play.
• Budding of imagination through pretend play.
• Emotional development: asserting independence, recognizing own needs and desires.
• Displaying a wider range of emotions and beginning to develop empathy.

It is essential to remember that while there are common milestones, every child is unique and may reach these milestones at their own pace.
