An understanding of child development is essential, allowing us to understand the cognitive, emotional, physical, social and educational growth that children go through from birth and into early adulthood. Some of the major theories of child development attempt to describe every aspect of development, often using a stage approach, whilst others focus only on a fairly limited aspect of development, such as cognitive or social growth.
Conduct further research to explore and report on some of the major theories and theorists of child development.
