Growth and Development
Growth and development in children refer to the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes that occur from birth through adolescence. Growth involves measurable changes such as height, weight, and head circumference, while development includes acquiring skills like walking, speaking, thinking, and interacting with others. These processes occur in stages and are influenced by genetics, nutrition, environment, and health status. In early childhood, rapid growth is accompanied by key developmental milestones such as sitting, crawling, and first words. As children grow older, they develop more complex motor, language, and social skills. Regular monitoring helps identify delays or concerns early, allowing timely intervention. Promoting healthy nutrition, stimulation, and emotional support is essential for optimal growth and development. Each child develops at their own pace, but consistent care ensures they reach their full potential.
