The construct of this inquiry had been drawn from the lensing of developmental progression of children in the College of Human Ecology Nursery Development Center. This work sought at presenting an index showing how children perform the basic tasks expected of them in terms of motor, self-care, and play skills using the development checklist. Results showed that the majority were observed to have performed the developmental milestones despite the absence of certain learning materials and facilities. The observances of these milestones significantly indicated that the children could perform the movement tasks that are crucial in their age they manifested a sense of independence as they could do certain tasks independently, and they were capable of relating to other children especially during play, which is essential for their overall development. Indicatively, a few were not observed to have performed certain tasks. These inobservances may entail difficulties in the aforesaid developmental areas which may hinder the childrens progress and growth in the future if actions will not be taken. The findings all in all were deemed as an important catalog for appropriate actions and as a baseline at tracking the development of the children whilst in the nursery development center.
