The factors lying outside the individual in his environment are said to be the external factors influencing his growth and development. These factors begin their role of influencing the growth and development just immediately after a baby is conceived. These may include the following:

  • Environment in the womb of the mother: What is available to the child for his/her nourishment in the mother’s womb from the time of conception till his/her birth is quite important from the angle of his growth and development. A few factors associated with this period may be cited as below:
    • The physical and mental health of the mother during pregnancy.
    • Single child or multiple children getting nourished in the womb.
    • The quality and quantity of nutrition received by the embryo within the womb of the mother.
    • Whether or not the embryo has been subjected to harmful radiation or rays, etc.
    • Normal or abnormal delivery.
    • Any damage or accident to the baby in the womb.
  • Environment available after birth: Whatever a child gets from different conditions and forces of his/her environment after his/her birth influence his/her growth and development in many ways.
