By Jenny Fry and Vivien Anderson

A handbook examining the stages of development of babies and young children, to help practitioners maximise their brain and body development in the first five years.

The book features photos chronicling specific aspects of brain/body learning, grouped to show emerging skills and types of experiences that support development, with text alongside giving an overview of the child's growing capabilities. The book notes the three stages of development that occur - from 0-14 months, 12 months to three years and two-and-a-half to five years.
