Hi I was wondering if I could please get some help with my assignment question?

The Question is:
Explain in your own words the core principles of child development and associated developmental tasks of children from birth to 5 years...

Well there are 7 principles of child development.
1 proceeds from the head down
2 Starts from the centre of the body outward
3 Depends on the maturation and learning
4 Proceeds from simple to complex
5 Growth is continuous
6 Growth proceeds from general to specific
7 There are individual rates of growth and development

Not sure how to link it to developmental tasks from birth to 5 yrs.

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks :sweating:
