Age 02+ Years The toddler stage, spanning from 1 to 3 years, is an exciting and transformative period in a child's life. Toddlers are characterized by their boundless energy, curiosity, and desire for independence. Physically, they develop remarkable motor skills, progressing from stumbling first steps to running, jumping, and climbing with increasing coordination. Their fine motor skills improve, allowing them to manipulate objects, hold utensils, and engage in activities like building towers or scribbling with crayons. Language acquisition expands rapidly as they acquire new words, learn to form sentences, and communicate their needs and desires. Cognitive abilities flourish as they explore their surroundings, solve simple puzzles, and engage in imaginative play. Socially, toddlers begin to interact with their peers, learning to share, take turns, and engage in simple social exchanges. They also assert their independence, developing a sense of self and displaying their preferences. This stage is filled with the wonder of discovery, rapid learning, and the joy of newfound abilities as toddlers navigate the world with their unique personalities and a growing sense of autonomy.
