Sharing Web Resources

The Zero to Three organization (www.zerotothree.org) has a few different newsletters that I subscribed to last week! I subscribed to: From Baby to Big Kid, The Baby Monitor: Updates from our Policy Team, Baby Steps, and Journal Table of Contents Alerts. The mission of the Zero to Three organization is to “ensure that all babies and toddlers have a strong start in life” and do this by using knowledge to support those infants and toddlers (Zero to Three, n.d.).
            While I am still waiting on the first newsletter from most of the resources, the newsletter From Baby to Big Kid is sent out monthly and will include information about child development, articles about issues and challenges that are common for child-rearing, play activities for parents and children, frequently asked questions, as well as research done on child development. I have received my first newsletter focused on infants that are 11 months of age (that is how old my little girl is).
            With this first newsletter I received there was no issue or trend relating to diversity or demographics but instead was more of a development resource. The spotlight for this newsletter was on listening skills, both receptive and expressive language, and how parents and caregivers can help to encourage language acquisition.
