5 Years Old

5 year old girl
Your child is getting older and more independent. She loves learning and is likely excited about starting school. With the new experiences she will encounter, she will learn new things every day and continue to mature. But even though she’s getting older, don’t forget to encourage her to use his imagination!

At five years old, your child should be able to dress and undress herself, as well as use a fork, spoon, and a table knife. She’ll also learn how to skip, swing, climb, hop on one foot, and turn somersaults
