Tick each skill your child can do. There are no wrong answers — this is a guide, not a test.
Communication & language
- Talks in short sentences (3–4 words)
- Is understood by family most of the time
- Answers simple “what” and “where” questions
- Names familiar objects, colours or animals
- Follows two- to three-step instructions
Social & play
- Plays alongside and starts to play with other children
- Takes turns sometimes
- Enjoys imaginative, make-believe play
- Shows a wide range of emotions
Movement & self-care
- Jumps, climbs and pedals a tricycle
- Draws a circle and holds a crayon well
- Feeds themselves with a spoon
- Helps dress and undress
When it’s worth seeking advice
- Speech unclear to people outside the family
- Not using short sentences
- No pretend play or interest in other children
- Frequent falling or very clumsy movements
If several of these feel familiar, an early, gentle check brings clarity — and support while it helps most.
