The fifth birthday represents an important landmark in a child's
development. He is now ready to start full-time primary school, and
we no longer speak of a baby or a little child; instead, we refer
to the boy or the girl. Over the next five years, as his horizons
become wider and his experiences outside the home increase
exponentially, he seems to become more reserved; more difficult to
approach and share things with. Sometimes, ordinary questions are
ignored or responded to with some apparently unrelated answer.
Occasionally, the child will move away even while someone is
speaking to him. This is a child trying to make sense of his new
experiences, adapting to new people and places, while preserving
his link to his earlier environment.Adults can feel frustrated by
this behavior and impatient, but when moved to protest, tend to use
words of exasperation rather than plain anger. There exists an
unspoken understanding that the child needs time to adjust to his
new pattern of life. However, not all over-fives are like this and
we do find some who seem to blend into the new pattern of life and
carry on with their home life as if no major change had taken
place.
