Healthy Minds Handouts

What does research tell us about the early years?  How can you nurture a baby’s healthy development?  ZERO TO THREE, in conjunction with the American Academy of Pediatrics, developed a nice series of handouts for parents and professionals called Healthy Minds that gives some of the answers to these important questions. The handouts, which are available in both English and Spanish, are based on findings from a National Academy of Sciences report that examined research on child and brain development. The handouts are age-specific. Each handout summarizes key findings from the report, gives examples of what’s going on developmentally for that age child and what you can do to promote healthy development.
