25 Things Research Says About Child Development

During this signal year in our organization’s history, we thought it would be particularly appropriate to pull together key child development insights derived from research conducted at Child Trends and elsewhere. And we wanted to present this information in language and in a format that would be easily accessible to all. Hence, this booklet. Please note that the numbers beside the 25 points that we present are used for convenience−not to imply that some points are more important than others.
