Book Synopsis

Physical development is the window to the whole child. Through watching children move, they reveal their true selves.

This groundbreaking book bridges the gap between theory and practice, offering a deeper understanding of young childrenâs physical development in outdoor environments. It explores the specific phases of motor development, the skills children acquire, and how these are closely linked to cognitive growth.

This resource provides clear and accessible guidance on promoting childrenâs wellbeing, the links between language and physical development, creating environments that encourage growth, and emphasising the adultâs role in supporting and facilitating progress.

Written for those working with children aged 2â6, this book serves as a practical reference guide for staff, offering adaptable resources, or as a starting point for additional study and research. Topics covered include:

  • The importance of physical development
  • Stages
