I'm trying to find a particular child development website.

This is what I remember about it -

It had a section devoted to each year of childhood, and then to the first six months and the second six months of each year, going up to at least adolescence
There was a focus on the child's emotional and intellectual development - how happy/settled a child would typically be at that stage, what fears they might be experiencing, how they would be understanding the world
I think the website author had written a book on the same subject
I think the author was from the US
I think I read it in 2014 or 2015
I remember the website having a pastel colour scheme and looking quite old-fashioned
I think I first discovered the website from a comment on Metafilter, but on searching my favourites, I can't find it now

Does this sound familiar to anyone? I would really like to read it again. Thanks!

I don't know about a related website, but it sounds like you might be interested in Chip Wood's book Yardsticks.

Best answer: The "Positive Parenting Ally" website sounds like it matches your description. Here's the page for ages 7-12.

Other possibilities:
The Center for Parenting Education - Child Development by Age. This seems to be based on the books by Louise Bates Ames, who has a year-by-year series of books.
