Motor Skills and Milestones with Infants

If you are employed in a state that uses a registry to track professional development hours, you will be able to provide your registry ID (Stars, MOPID, Registry or other ECE ID#) after you have completed the quiz for the course. If you pass the quiz we will report your course completion to the state registry using the registry ID that you provide.

This is a great course for teachers of infants that want to learn more about how infants grow and develop motor skills and the milestones they develop along the way.
Course length – 1.5 hours.

The course helps answer the following questions:

• What are the motor skills infants will be working on?

• What is the difference between large and small motor skills?

• What milestones will babies develop every few months during the first year?

• How will premature birth affect reaching those milestones?

Participants who successfully complete this course will:

• Understand what motor skills are and the difference between large and small motor skills.

• Be able to track milestones as babies reach them in order to make early intervention a priority.

• Comprehend the importance of tummy time and ways to make it successful.
