Development of Children over 18 months
Beyond infancy, it becomes difficult to make a list of definitive
developmental milestones that must be met by a certain date.
The range of how children do things and when they accomplish developmental
tasks becomes broader, largely due to the increasing influence of
culture and experience. This makes it hard to put this section
into the format we have used for our developmental milestones section.
Therefore, we will provide you with several different ways to look
at the development of young children over 18 months. We hope you
will find this useful in deciding how to address developmental difficulties
your child may experience.
