Milestones of Development in School Children (Age 5+)

Despite what some commercials and ads may say, there is no magic pill or supplement that creates lifelong health. It’s something that begins in childhood by following the right habits and choices for true, holistic balance. At Cameron Family Chiropractic, we make a point of walking families through these journeys together at every step of the way, from the early days of pregnancy to parenthood and beyond. 

As our children grow, it’s only natural to wonder if they are progressing in a healthy way, and what some of the milestones of development can be. We’ve previously covered these in babies, infants, toddlers, and in preschoolers, and now let’s look at the final stage of childhood: ages five and up.

Milestones of Development in Kids (Age 3-4)

At Cameron Family Chiropractic, we help families throughout their entire journey – from the first exciting (and potentially stressful) days of pregnancy, through the joys of motherhood and beyond. We know how heartwarming and amazing it can be to watch our children grow…and how overwhelming it sometimes feels along the way. 

We’ve written before about some of the major milestones of babies, infants, and toddlers. Today, let’s continue with a closer look at the ages of three to four. This is an exciting time, as your child will have their own personality and blossoming independence, they may be starting preschool, and they will be learning and socializing at a rapid rate. 

Milestones of Development in Toddlers (1-3 Years)

At Cameron Family Chiropractic, we are committed to supporting families through every stage of their journey, from pregnancy to motherhood and beyond. It is truly special to witness the growth of our children as they navigate their way through their early years, but if you’re not sure what to expect, it can feel a bit daunting. 

In a previous blog post, we discussed the significant milestones achieved during the first year of a child's life. Now, let's look to the years after that, where toddlers really start to develop their own unique personalities.

Milestones of Development in Infants (3-12 months)

Welcoming a new baby into the world is an exciting and awe-inspiring experience. As parents, we watch with anticipation as our little ones grow and develop at a rapid pace – and between the ages of 3 to 12 months, infants reach significant milestones in their physical, cognitive, and social-emotional development. In this blog, we will explore these developmental milestones and highlight the importance of tracking your baby's progress. We'll also discuss how gentle chiropractic adjustments can support your infant's overall health journey during this crucial stage.

This guide will provide an overview of the essential milestones for newborns between 0-3 months of age, along with some red flags to watch out for.
