Parents as Teachers

Kudos to the Bristol/Warren school district for their early learning program, “Parents as Teachers”.  It’s a great program that’s free to toddlers under three in the area.  Once a month an expert will come into your home to work with and assess your little one to make sure he/she is developing all of the skills of an average baby.  

Charlie had his first home visit yesterday.  Nancy worked around my work schedule and Charlie’s nap schedule to maximize our time together.  She gave me some great ideas on encouraging Charlie to crawl (he only wants to walk) and some new developmental games to play.  She also left me with a sizeable packet of information on skills to look for at his age, foods to try, sleeping habits, etc.  It was great, and I’m looking forward to next month’s visit.

    Hey Michelle,
    Let us know how ya get him to crawl, my little Morgan won’t crawl either. Can’t believe these guys are 9 mos. already. She eats everything we do but does not want to crawl.
