Development that moves from the head down to the feet.
Cephalocaudal

Moral

Cognitive Development Theory

Cognitive

The Preoperational Stage (Toddlers/Preschoolers)
Near-to-Far means an infant controls this body part before they control their fingers.
Arms
A "sensory stimulating" environment primarily promotes the development of this organ.
The Brain
Because one area of development affects the others, we say the 5 areas are
Interrelated
