The Program Summary
From the ages of three to five, preschoolers reach many developmental milestones with seemingly endless energy and increasing physical coordination. As a toddler becomes a preschooler, her lower center of gravity improves her ability to balance and to try many new physical activities. Good nutrition and the proper amount of sleep are crucial to a preschooler's development.
This program shows them engaged in activities that exemplify the extraordinary physical advancements that children make at this age. Teachers and caregivers also share their firsthand observations of how this development takes place.
Key points:
? Preschoolers are children between the ages of three and five. ? Their physical development includes the acquisition of gross and fine motor skills. ? Vicktor Lowenfeld studied children's artwork and developed a framework of stages that their drawings go
through as they mature. ? Preschoolers reach many developmental milestones during these years. ? Good nutrition and the proper amount of sleep are crucial to a preschooler's development. ? Though preschoolers will grow and develop no matter what, there are things that caregivers can do to
foster this development. ? Some children have physically challenging conditions like Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, and visual and
hearing impairments that can affect their acquisition of gross and fine motor skills. ? Teachers in an inclusive environment can make modifications to the physical classroom, materials, and
activities in order to better serve children with special needs.
