Module
MODULE 2 12 Subject: The Child and Adolescent Learners and Learning Principles

Physical Development of Infants and Toddlers


At the end of this Module, you should be able to:

 trace the course of the pre-natal development process that you went through,
 explain the most common hazards to pre-natal development and
 become more appreciative of the gift of life manifested in an anti-abortion stand.

INTRODUCTION
We have just traced the developmental process before birth. We shall continue to trace the developmental
process by following the infant or the baby who is just born up to when he reaches age 2. The period that comes after
pre-natal or antenatal stage is infancy which, in turn, is followed by toddlerhood. Infancy and toddlerhood span that
first two years of life.

Activity No. 4
Reflection
Having learned the physical development of infants and toddlers and Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, as a future
parent/ teacher/ caregiver of children, reflect on:

 what you should do more often for infants and toddlers and
 what you should refrain from doing to facilitate their growth and development.
