Early moments matter in a child’s development. When young children play, they exercise their vibrant imaginations and boost their creativity. Even in the simplest of children’s games, there is much more going on than meets the eye.

Globally, UNICEF works to support children in their early years as it is a time of incredible brain growth and development never repeated. Alongside adequate nutrition...

"Poopy." "Butt." "I know you are, but what I am!" Preschool lingo is going strong at my house these days. I know it's normal. My son just turned five, and 5-year-olds think anything that has to do with poop is hilarious.

All behavior is a form of communication So, what are your preschooler’s behaviors trying to tell you? I’m a firm believer that children don’t do things just to piss us off. Sure, it feels like it sometimes. But, truth is children aren’t born ‘bad kids’ they aren’t out to wreck our day. Children learn through their own experiences and modeling of others on how to behave. So, let's talk about how we can look at modifying student behavior in one of two ways- is it a missing skill or is it a behavior problem?     Example 1: Hitting Traditionally,...
