6. Stages of Physical Development: From Birth to Age 2

Physical development during the first two years of life is crucial as infants grow rapidly in motor skills, coordination, and strength. Milestones such as rolling over, sitting up, crawling, and walking mark significant achievements. Encouraging movement through play, tummy time, and safe exploration helps strengthen muscles and refine motor skills. Activities like dancing, throwing balls, and outdoor play foster physical growth while providing opportunities for bonding and socialization. A nurturing environment that promotes physical activity contributes to overall well-being. In Islamic teachings, the body is viewed as a trust from Allah, and maintaining its health is essential. Encouraging children to embrace physical activity aligns with the Islamic principle of taking care of one’s body. By providing age-appropriate activities that promote physical development, caregivers can support children in building a strong foundation for lifelong health and wellness.
