Read every day

A child's brain development is 85% complete by age 4. Research over three decades shows children who are read to for as little as 15 minutes a day build healthier, more complex brain neuronal pathways. ‪#‎readaloud‬

Board Games . . . We play them in preschool!

Board games are a terrific way to boost learning for children beginning around 18 months. In addition to learning about letters, colors, counting, etc., kids learn how to take turns and about sportsmanship. Parents playing with children also have to step away from the multitasking that makes up most of their day. This can be a special time for a child and a parent. There are lots of good books about board games for children age 18 months to 8 years.
