DEVELOPEMENT
INFANCY STAGE(0 TO 5 YEARS)
 Age of infancy is marked by an increase of independence on the part
of the baby as he is able to sit , stand and walk at his own will.
 The basic foundation of physical , mental and personality
development are laid in this stage.
 According to ADLER infancy prepares the style of life.
It lays down the entire program for the future life of the
Child.
 FREUD is also of the opinion that within 4 or 5 years the child
becomes what he has to grow in the coming life.
 HURLOCK calls it a dangerous age referring to a large number of
deaths of children in this period.

child appeals and pleases many adults particularly the poets and the
artists.
