How many stages is childhood divided into?

Childhood is generally divided into the following stages:

1. Infant (0-2 years old): This stage is the fastest development period of the baby's body and brain, which requires adequate nutrition and care.

2. Early childhood (2-6 years old): This stage is an important period for children to start learning language, cognition and social skills, and parents should pay enough attention and guidance.

3. Preschool (6- 12 years old): This stage is the preparation period before children enter school. Parents should help their children to establish good study habits and living habits.

4. Primary school (6- 12 years old): This stage is the period when children formally enter school, so parents should pay attention to their children's academic performance and mental health.

5. Adolescence (12- 18 years old): This stage is a period of great changes in children's physiology and psychology, and parents should give their children enough support and guidance.
