Introduction
Physical development starts with infants and continues to adolescence. It includes:· Growth
· Motor skills
Growth is the physical changes that happen to a child, such as changes in weight, height and appearance.
Motor skills include gross motor skills and fine motor skills. These skills give children control over their body. They give, for example, coordination, the ability to walk or jump and the ability to use scissors.
Every child develops in their own way and at their own rate. As a child’s physical development progresses normally, the child becomes more confident which also benefits their social and emotional development.
