Fascinating Fact:

We eat different foods. Babies drink milk. Older children eat a mix of fruit, vegetables, grains, and proteins.

In KS1 Science, children learn how humans grow from babies to adults. They explore how bodies, teeth, diet, and abilities change to help us stay healthy and independent.

  • Development: The way our bodies and skills change as we grow.
  • Stage of life: A step in growing up, such as baby, child, teenager, or adult.
  • Balanced diet: Eating a healthy mix of foods to help our bodies grow and work properly.
What are the main stages of human development for KS1?

For KS1, human development is usually described as baby, toddler, child, teenager, and adult. At each stage we grow taller, stronger, and more independent.

Why do babies and children need different food as they grow?

Babies start with milk because it is easy to digest. As they grow, children need a wider range of foods to give them energy, vitamins, and protein for healthy bodies.

How can I teach KS1 children about human growth and change?

You can use photos from different ages, sort them into stages, discuss food and exercise needs, and talk about new skills learned as we grow.
