Children are the most vulnerable members of any society. When appropriately raised, they will benefit the community in the best possible way. When discussing their upbringing, we must therefore cater to their physical and psychological needs so they may develop sound minds. Equally important, individuals should consider the psychological and mental development areas during children's pre-school years. During this period, children rapidly adapt to the changes in their surroundings and their observation and comprehension skills are at an all-time high, impacting their development. Parents and teachers must thus have a basic knowledge and understanding of children's psychological, emotional, social and cognitive development during this age to contribute to healthy growth.

This introductory child psychology course will help you understand this important and fascinating field. It discusses the child's overall psychological upbringing, cognitive development, genetics, personality and prenatal development.
