Children quickly change. Their feelings, behaviors, skills and developmental changes are keys to understanding them. Early childhood development can be broken down into four distinct categories: gross motor, fine motor, speech and social development. During the discussion, Dr. Ganek will review normal chronologic development in each of these categories, as well as how parents can help their children reach key developmental milestones. Become more effective in nurturing and navigating your child through their growth so they can prosper.
