• Genetic traits and environment are different for all babies which means that each one will be an individual. Explores human individuality and the broad range of characteristics that are considered normal. Through the use of the Denver Developmental Screening Test and the Gesell Infant Test, a child's motor skills and coordination can be measured and that, although the advancement in motor skills is quite varied, each child we see tests out as normal. In assessing children, their own special qualitites must be taken into account. By establishing "guidelines" for growth, however, developmental problems can be identified and corrected.
