How Children Learn and How Can we Support YOU?

Here is some interesting information from page 5 of the Washington State Early Learning and Development Guidelines Birth through 3rd Grade 2012 

"Learning starts with families and communities.

Families are their child's first, most important and life-long teachers.  They are also responsible for their children 24 hours a day, seven days a week, no matter what, until the children grow up.  Parents and families care about their children and look for ways to support their healthy growth.   This can be hard work!  Parents embed their children in a web of relatives, friends and social networks. This community offers safety, opportunities, learning and support."

How could this blog be useful to you as a parent in finding ways to support your child's healthy growth?
- Links to articles and research, based on your questions?
- What questions do you have?
- More information about policies and procedures here at Children's Village?
- Are you curious about the media and it's impact on your child's development?

If you have any ideas for how this blog can better support your family, please let me know in the comments below or e-mail me directly.

Thanks,
