Limit screen time (TVs, phones, tablets, etc.)—especially for children under 2. If used, keep it to video calls with loved ones Babies learn best through real-life interaction—talking, playing, and connecting with the people around them childcareresourcecenter.org #HealthyDevelopment

@joinvroom From the very first days of life, a baby’s brain is built through connection. Simple, loving interactions help form the neural connections that support lifelong learning. At CCRC, we believe these early moments matter—and we’re here to support caregivers every step of the way

So much #BrainBuilding happens simply by chatting with your newborn! 🗣️ Try this: As you dress your baby, share their delight in discovering their fingers and toes. Touch their tiny toes gently as you talk about them. You’re encouraging them to focus, an important skill!

Play. Learn. Grow. Our free bilingual Kaleidoscope classes help FFN caregivers build strong early learning foundations through music, movement & play. Join us: contact details below on leaflet childcareresourcecenter.org #EarlyChildhood #CCRC
