Developmental Milestones 

Developmental milestones are a set of functional skills and age-specific tasks that most infants and children can do at a certain age range. How a child plays, learns, speaks, acts, and moves for his or her age are important signs of a child’s healthy growth and development.

WIC helps engage parents in monitoring their children’s development and growth.
