So, you want to know, is my child normal/on track/developing at the right speed? We hear this all the time, and it’s completely normal to wonder what milestones your child should be reaching, at any given age. So let me break it down for you from zero to ten.

0-3 months: grasping objects, watching faces, starting to smile.

4-7 months: sitting up, rolling, playing, and tracking objects.

8-12 months: It's really getting fun. She's feeding herself and everything's going into the mouth!

1-2 years: learning words, walking, stacking objects.

2-3 years: making sentences, climbing stairs forward and backward.

3 years: dressing themselves, playing freely, following multi-step directions.

4-5 years: in depth conversations and major coordination (well, better at least.)

5 years: better hand skills, grasping basic math, less aggressive and less fearful.

6-7 years: reading, understanding time, starting to identify more with a certain gender.

7-8 years: coordination is getting better and better and she’s losing teeth!

8 years: writing paragraphs, doing more math work

9-10 years: self care and independence (hooray and sad face)

10 years: They're really growing up! Reading chapter books, writing stories and doing group activities.

Just remember: all kids develop at different rates.. so talk to your pediatrician if you have any concerns. And
