CDC's Developmental Milestone Tracker
Clinicians identify children with developmental delays by comparing their skills to other children of the same age. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention created an app that helps caregivers track their child's developmental milestones from 2 months to 5 years. The app features photos and videos at each stage of development. You can download it for free.
