Questions and Answers

1. What are Development Wheels™?

Development Wheels™ are unique, circular resources designed to provide information, ideas and guidance on various child development, health and family support topics. Each wheel is written by specialists and practitioners, making them accessible and relevant to parents, carers, health visitors, childminders, teachers and others working with children.

2. How do they work?

Each Development Wheel™ consists of three sections, with a middle ‘inner’ section that you rotate to reveal information through a window at the top. One side highlights what a child might be able to do at a certain age and how parents or professionals can support them. The other side covers ways to keep the child healthy and safe.

3. Who can benefit from Development Wheels™?

They are ideal for a wide range of users, including parents, carers, health visitors, childminders, teachers, early years practitioners, students, and others working in childcare, health and family support. Because the content is created by experts, they are both practical for everyday family use and beneficial as a professional reference tool.

4. What sizes are available?

Standard Development Wheels™ (approximately 230mm): Easy to carry around and wipe-clean for regular use.

Super-size Practitioner Development Wheels™ (440mm): Larger wheels containing more detailed information, ideal for settings such as children’s centres, nurseries and group environments.

5. What topics do the wheels cover?

Currently, there are 26 Development Wheel™ titles (and more in the pipeline) covering early years development, speech and language, outdoor play, health topics like pre-birth and postnatal support, maths and reading, teenage years and more. There are also specialist titles such as the Schemas Development Wheels, created to help understand and support children’s schemas.

6. Can they be customised with my organisation’s branding?

Yes. You can have your own logo and branding on the back of any Development Wheel™, and even adjust the colours to match your organisation’s style. This allows you to share important information with families and the community while promoting your brand.

7. Is there a minimum order for customised Development Wheels™?

Yes, you can order customised copies in quantities as low as 100 wheels. The cost per wheel decreases with larger orders, making it a cost-effective solution for local authorities, family support organisations, health services and educational establishments.
