See below: The answer is best discussed with your pediatrician or google "developmental milestones" for the age specifically you seek. Developmental tracking entails monitoring the progress of your child in areas of: language & other cognitive skills, social skills, physical challenges/changes, & personality. This age group covers preschool, kindergarten through 2nd grade-too much info for this forum.

As Dr. Sia said, : This is a long time-span & quality of motor movement is as important as attaining milestones interrelated to other developmental domains. Highlights are throwing a ball overhand ar 2, peddling a trike & dressing oneself at 3, using fasteners & "galloping" at 4, skipping, tying shoes, mature pencil grip at 5, riding a bike at 6. See aap.Org for the book "your child, birth-5" & other handouts.
