This milestone chart can help you check your child's development against common milestones.
Five years

Ready for school. Children at this age can talk with others, answer "how many?" and tell the difference between shapes, toys, and pictures on cards. They can tell you their birthday, name feelings, dress themselves, march in time to music and tell the difference between real and make-believe.
Check the box on each line that mentions at least two activities your child is doing, then click Tell me more.
