This episode covers the key physical and cognitive milestones toddlers (ages 1 to 3) experience, focusing on expected motor skills, language development, and psychosocial growth. We discuss Piaget's sensorimotor and preoperational stages and Erikson's autonomy vs. shame and doubt theory, along with age-appropriate activities and safety measures for this age group. Learn essential health promotion strategies, including nutrition, immunizations, and injury prevention techniques, vital for both nursing students and healthcare providers.
