When Does a Baby Start Laughing and Smiling

Child evolution stages are the theoretical milestones of child evolution, some of which are asserted in nativist theories. This article discusses the well-nigh widely accepted developmental stages in children. At that place exists a wide variation in terms of what is considered "normal," caused by variation in genetic, cognitive, physical, family, cultural, nutritional, educational, and environmental factors. Many children attain some or most of these milestones at different times from the norm.^[ane]

Holistic evolution sees the kid in the round, as a whole person - physically, emotionally, intellectually, socially, morally, culturally and spiritually. Learning near child development involves studying patterns of growth and evolution, from which guidelines for 'normal' development are construed. Developmental norms are sometimes called milestones - they define the recognised pattern of development that children are expected to follow. Each child develops in a unique mode; however, using norms helps in understanding these general patterns of evolution while recognising the wide variation between individuals.

One manner to identify pervasive developmental disorders is if infants neglect to meet the development milestones in time or at all.^[2]
