Milestones for 3-4 years

MILESTONES FOR 3-4 YEAR OLDS

Milestones 3-4 years The development of the 3-4 year old child is an important milestone in the life of your child. Now he/she is not a toddler any more. At this age they become more and more independent. Most of them are already potty trained and have the skills to eat and drink by themselves. The child at this age begins to play with friends and sometimes even has a best friend. Their fine motor development is improving and their gross motor development includes more dangerous climbing on the jungle gyms.
