Slide 6 - Tekstslide

Physical Development 
Physical development refers to gross and fine motor movements, co - ordination, spatial awareness and the overall ability to control our own bodies and movements.

Babies rely on the reflexes to move and manipulate objects, they learn to control their heads , arms and feet. 

Through repetitive movements and practice, our muscles begin to strengthen and grow becoming more co - ordinated. 

During adolescence as our stamina develops our level of skills will increase.
