Don't know if its still in print but I remember a book from my Nursery Nursing days..

Birth to Five by Mary Sheridan

Breaks everything down into months and different types of development - physical - gross and fine, social. language, intellectual, etc.

Brlliant book, I too used it whilst training but lent it to another student and not managed to get hold of another copy.

I have child Development an illustrated guide by Carolyn Meggitt its very good and offers suitable activity ideas too.

Ive got birth to 5 also, from from 20+ years ago :eek: when I did my NNEB,
A couple of years ago or so Im sure it was still in print as I was looking at the time for a friend who wanted to check her daughter was developing at the right stages (her words not mine) :)
But as Sarah says the EYFS cards are the best thing to follow if its for you as a childminder,
