What is sequence of development?
Rate of development The rate of children development is the speed at which development happens. Some children may reach various child development stages earlier or later than others. each child's progress is individual to them and that different children develop at different rates.
It is a quantity of something in comparison with a unit of another thing. Rate of development varies child to child. Each and every child has a different rate of development. Although they follow more or less the same pattern of rate of development, For Example: Some babies start teething from 6 months and some of them start even at 9 months .some babies can start making sentences at around 1 Years but in some case at the age of 1 yrs. and they only can speak few broken words. Sequence of development The sequence of development is a process where an event is followed one after the other and achieves a level of succession with a series of changes or growth that a process undertakes normally to improve on that process. Leading to a matured state. This means that you must finish with one area of development before you move onto the next one. The cephalocaudle principle believes that development moves from the head downwards. This is to do with small children and understands that infants get full control of their heads, then arms then finally feet , from the top down. This is also seen later on and the understanding is that the spinal cord needs to develop properly before other areas such as the hands and feet and then fingers and toes develop. This is sequential and you cannot skip sequences or you will not be fully developed.
The difference between rate and sequence of developmentThe main difference between the sequence and rate of development is that the sequence is the order in which development takes place, for example a baby has to hold its head up first before it can learn to sit up unaided. Some parts of the sequence may be missed not all children crawl and may roll instead to move before they learn to walk and learn to crawl later on.

Absolutely, playing can be brain food. Playing "make believe" helps cognitive development. Kids begin playing alongside one another without interacting at about 1 year old; this is called parallel play. Soon though, at about 15 months old, we begin to see simple social play where they are interested in what the other child is doing and then complex play develops where we see them gravitate to the same sex usually and really cooperate and communicate. Kids should have ample play time, it also helps to develop their social skills.

From about 8 months the child should exhibit signs of taking those steps towards walking.
