Detailed explanation-1: -Growth proceeds from near to far (proximal-distal)–from body trunk outward, scoot body, wave arms, grab object, and pick up object. 3. Growth proceeds from the simple to the complex–sleeping, being fed, holding the bottle, feeding self.
Detailed explanation-2: -Give an example of near to far development. Development starts at the trunk and moves outward. First babies start to wave then they learn how to grab objects.
Detailed explanation-3: -The difference between these two theories is in the direction of growth they support. In cephalocaudal growth, growth starts from the head and moves down to the feet. In proximodistal growth, growth starts from the torso, or the body’s center, and moves outwards, to the arms and the legs.
Detailed explanation-4: -Near to Far: Development starts close to body and moves outward. ex: babies will first wave their arms when they see an object they want. Later they can point and develop finger and hand control and can point. Eventually, they reach out and grasp.
Detailed explanation-5: -4. Development proceeds from the simple (concrete) to the more complex. Children use their cognitive and language skills to reason and solve problems. For example, learning relationships between things (how things are similar), or classification, is an important ability in cognitive development.
