Development wheel charts care for parents

18 Nov 2009

The Birth to Five Wheel, is themed around keeping a young child healthy and safe. The centre rivet in the wheel allows the parent or carer to twist it around to the age bracket they are interested in. This contains advice like 'Play with me outside each day' and milestones such as 'Use trial and error and start to say "no" often', for two-year-olds.

The wheels have proved popular in Harrow children's centres and as word has spread, other local authorities have also ordered copies of the wheel.
