Toddler Milestones Quiz
Twelve questions built on the CDC's public developmental milestones for this age — words, gestures, pretend play, response to name.
Between 16 and 30 months, social-communication milestones — first words, gestures, pretend play, responding to their name — tell clinicians more than almost anything else. This is the same window pediatricians screen with the validated M-CHAT-R/F questionnaire at the 18- and 24-month well-child visits.
This quiz is Bridgeway's own set of twelve questions drawn from the CDC's public “Learn the Signs. Act Early.” milestones for this age range, written for parents who want an organized read on what they're seeing before (or between) those visits. It takes about two minutes, and your answers stay in your browser — nothing is stored or sent.
This free interactive tool runs right on this page — no download, no signup, nothing stored.
This quiz is an educational tool written by Bridgeway using the CDC's public milestone descriptions — it is not the M-CHAT-R/F or any validated screening instrument, and it cannot tell you whether your child is autistic. Only a qualified clinician can screen, evaluate, and diagnose. Ask your pediatrician to administer the validated M-CHAT-R/F at your child's next well-child visit.
