The Development of Little Children

One thing that interested most about this course was how I was able to learn all about the development of children. I realized that a child's brain is both a complicated and yet a very simple subject to understand. Children obliviously think like adults do. Their view of the world is so innocent. That is so beautiful to me. One thing that interested me the most was how children go through the process of self-development and self-identification since they were infants. For some children, their idea of self-identification can come as early as 1 1/2, maybe 2 years old. The are so many things that I have learn about child development that is hard to just pin-point a few things. The theories of child development are very informative as well. Piaget's and Vygotsky theories on child development may differ, but they are similar in many ways as well. One thing i have learned in this class is that the way a child develops is a pretty good indicator of the adult they will soon become.
