This fully updated new edition of From Birth to Five Years: Practical Developmental Examination is a comprehensive and step-by-step 'how to guide' to conducting developmental examinations on pre-school children. Drawing upon the latest research in current child development philosophies and practices, this text serves as a valuable resource for a broader range of professionals who are responsible for assessing children's developmental progress as part of their daily work routines.

The book begins with a practical framework for developmental examination, providing a solid foundation for practitioners. It then progresses through each of the key developmental domains, offering guidance on enquiry and observation, as well as how to chart typical and atypical patterns. Red flags for recognizing significant delay or disordered development are also highlighted.

In addition to providing practical guidance, the book offers valuable advice on how to make sense of the findings and effectively communicate this information to parents. To reinforce and expand on the practical and theoretical information presented in the book, an updated companion website is available at www.routledge.com/cw/sharma. This website includes an interactive timeline of the key developmental domains, introductions to theory with links to further reading, research summaries, video clips demonstrating practical assessment skills, and downloadable resources such as pictures to support examination of verbal and non-verbal development, as well as tips to facilitate and promote development.

Developed alongside Mary Sheridan's original From Birth to Five Years: Children's Developmental Progress, this unique guide expands on its normative developmental stages by offering practical guidance for health, education, and social care professionals, as well as anyone concerned with child development. Whether you are a practitioner, researcher, or educator, this book will be an invaluable resource for understanding and promoting children's healthy growth and development.
