Preferred term

developmental milestones  

Definition

  • Developmental milestones are important, measurable indicators of an individual's growth that are evaluated based upon age. Each milestone is associated with a specific age and indicates typical development, although the age at which a typically developing child reaches each of these milestones may vary considerably.
