Intellectual development: this is learning the skills of understanding, memory and concentration.
Communication and speech development: this is learning to communicate with friends, family and all others.
Although development is called different names, it is important to remember that these areas are interconnected and link with one another.
There are three basic principles of human development that apply to everyone from birth. 1. Development starts from the head and works down the body.
A new baby cannot hold up his or her head alone. Yet, within a few months, the baby will be able to sit alone. This is because control of the spine and central nervous system develops from the top of the head down to the base of the spine. You can see this control developing in a baby as he or she starts to hold the head without support. Similarly, a new-born baby waves his or her arms around vaguely, yet in nine months’ time will find the tiniest crumb or piece of Lego easy to pick up with the thumb and finger. This is because the nervous system also develops from the spinal cord out to the extremities (hands and feet). 2. All development happens in the same order, but can occur at different rates.
A baby has to hold his or her head up, learn to sit with support, and then without support, before he or she can stand by holding on to furniture and then
Babies will start to lift and turn their heads, using their arms to support their upper body when lying on their stomach.

The word development refers not to the physical growth of children and young people, but to the skills and knowledge that they are developing. When looking at child development it is divided into the following areas –
1.1 Describe the expected pattern of children and young peoples development from birth to 19 years to include:-
TDA 2.1 Child and young person development. 1.1 & 1.2 Age Physical development Communication and intellectual development Social, emotional and Behavioural development Birth to 3 months Looks at hands. Plays with fingers. Clasps hands.
Development is holistic means that each area is dependant on the other to ensure the child develops to their full potential. Although development is described as different areas: physical, social, emotional, language and intellectual, each area needs to connect in order for the child to develop. So for instance a child might be highly intellectual and then be unable to butter bread. This isn't because the child is incapable of buttering bread, it just has not had the chance to practice the physical skill. Another example is a chid needs to wear glasses for school (physical) and other kids start bullying him, this can mean his self esteem
