Child development is the development of perceptual, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral abilities and functioning during childhood. Childhood refers to the period in the human life from the acquisition of language at one or two years of age to the onset of adolescence at 12 or 13 years of age. Child development entails both qualitative and quantitative growth processes, as well as the gradual emergence of differentiation abilities. The changes that children will go through as they gain knowledge and grow physically larger are referred to as quantitative development. The qualitative stage refers to changes in the child's thinking and behavior. It also manifests itself in how they perceive the world as they grow older. Development is a qualitative change that results in an increase in structure for better and more efficient organ functioning. Growth is not required for development to occur. All growth is development, but not the other way around.

It is the general development pattern that can be seen from the postnatal period and its both physical and functional development.
