Physical development of a child in 2.5 years: height and weight

During this period, the child perfectly owns his body. His movements are coordinated and accurate. He can walk, run, jump, sharply change the pace and character of movement, stand on one foot, climb along the Swedish wall. In 2.5 g the kid is already starting to learn a tricycle.The development of the child in 2.5 years is very fast. Photo: Getty There are also standards and norms for the development of the body:

• the height of boys is from 88 to 95 cm, girls - from 87 to 94;
• The weight of boys - from 11.8 to 15 kg, girls - from 11 to 14.4 kg.

If these indicators are very little understated or overstated, you should not worry. But strong deviations from the standard indicate serious problems.

Speech development: what a child should be able to say

In 2.5 grams the child has in his vocabularyabout 1000 words. In most cases, the diction is quite clear, and even an outsider can understand the baby's conversation. But the kid often rearranges syllables or letters in a word. This should be corrected immediately, as the child will get used to such pronunciation and for a long time will not be able to speak correctly. The kid does not stop for a minute. He constantly tells what he sees and does. Parents need only have patience and do not ask to be silenced. When a child speaks for a long time, he does it all better and better.

Mental and psychological development

At this age, a small person must learn:

• collect pyramids;
• name and show several primary colors;
• orient in simple geometric forms;
• build towers from cubes;
• draw simple schematic figures, cross, ladder.

The child likes to participate in simplemobile games with a small group of children. The little man begins to try to copy the intonation, gestures and behavior of adults. Therefore, parents need to monitor themselves. The child begins to feel more subtle emotions: pity, sympathy, melancholy, tenderness. The kid begins to realize that he has the right to his opinion, so he often does everything in defiance. It's not just whims or stubbornness, but a certain stage of development. But parents need to show wisdom and react properly to all antics. It is best to learn to negotiate with the child, switch his attention and find compromises. During this period, the kid more than ever needs the benevolent attitude of adults. Knowing what the child should learn by the age of 2.5, it is possible to correct the development in time and prevent problems at an older age.
