Give families developmental activities for infants which fit into their daily lives
Show parents how to help their birth to 36-month-old children realize their fullest potential. Provide parents with reproducible activities to integrate all aspects of development. Plus, parents learn how their child is doing with six developmental charts summarizing normal skills development for each 3-month time period. Together you and the parent can refer to the charts to track the child's progress.
