Analysis

From the #hash-tag you wrote about the picture, what physical characteristics of early childhood
came out?
#PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Pictures 1 and 2 exhibits that preschoolers bodies at this age have developed over time and the
areas in their brains that control movement continues to mature, thus enabling them to perform
gross motor skills such as playing in the slide and playing in the swing by their own. On the other
hand, Picture 3 exhibit that preschoolers' social-emotional development at this age has progress
over time and continues to mature, thus enabling them to socialize and have fun with other
children.

Physical characteristics of preschoolers such as physical development and socio- emotional

development came out. Physical growth and development entail more than just becoming taller,
stronger, or larger. It involves a series of changes in body size, composition, and proportion enabling
them to do skills on their own while socio emotional development represents a specific domain of
child development. It is a gradual , integrative process through which children acquire the capacity
to understand, experience, express and manage emotions and to develop meaningful relationship
with others.
